Thanks for the bed and board Bob enjoyed my stay
But I got just a little bit bored Bob be on my way
So you got yourself a job Bob that's not for me
You got a house and a wife Bob but I'm still free
Remember the good ole days around the Frisco yard Bob for you they're gone
Now your wife's lookin' at me kinda hard Bob I'll move along
[ fiddle + steel ]
So you got yourself a housewife Bob and a housenote too
Reclining chairs and phone bills Bob that's not for you
I'm a headin' out LA way Bob there ain't no spare
The freight pulls out today Bob do you dare
Remember the good times down in New Orleans Bob that Cajun Queen
And your wife's lookin' at me kinda hard Bob she thinks I'm mean
[ fiddle + steel ]
Thanks for the bed and board Bob enjoyed my stay
But just forget all the top Bob bout the good ole days
Cause your wife's a little bit scared Bob you wanna be free
But you and me both know Bob you're better off than me
Remember the cold nights out on Frisco yard Bob and the hard cold ground
Note:Al sings this song like Bob Dylan.
I, man, am regal, a German am I
Never odd or even if I had a hi-fi
Madam, I'm Adam, too hot to hoot
No lemons, no melon, too bad I hid a boot
Lisa Bonet ate no basil, Warsaw was raw
Was it a car or a cat I saw?
Rise to vote, sir, do geese see god?
"Do nine men interpret?", "Nine men," I nod
Rats live on no evil star, Won't lovers revolt now?"
Race fast safe car
Pa's a sap, Ma is as selfless as I am
May a moody baby doom a yam
Ah, Satan sees Natasha, no devil lived on
Lonely Tylenol not a banana baton
No "x" in Nixon, O, stone, be not so
O Geronimo, no minor ego
"Naomi," I moan, "A Toyota's a Toyota"
A dog, a panic in a pagoda
Oh, no! Don Ho!, Nurse, I spy gypsies-run!
Senile felines, now see bees I won
UFO tofu, we panic in a pew
Oozy rat in a sanitary zoo
God! A red nugget!, A fat egg under a dog!
Go hang a salami, I'm a lasagna hog
He spent fifteen years getting loaded
Fifteen years 'till his liver exploded
Now what's Bob gonna do now that he can't drink?
The doctor said, "What were you thinkin' 'bout?"
Bob said, "That's the point,
I wasn't thinkin' 'bout nothing
Now I gotta do something else,"
OI OI OI
"To pass the time."
Bob shaved his head
Got a new identity
Sixty-two holed air cushioned boots
And a girl who rides a scooter
Gonna take him out, of town
They would get away
Riding around, as the trucks drive by
You could here the mother fuckers go...
A couple of lines, an extra thermos of Joe
He'll be kickin' in heads at the punk rock show, yeah
Bob's the kinda guy who knows just what
Bob's the kinda guy who knows just what to do
When the doctor tells him to
"Quit your drinkin', now's the time."
Will he ever walk the line
To all my friends, I feel just great
But will he ever walk the line
Kickin' ass and bustin' heads
Red suspenders
Once a day he shaves his head
But will he ever walk the line?
But will he ever walk the line?
But will he ever walk the line?
But will he ever walk the line?
[Dre]
1, 2.. 1, 2, 3; yeah!
Inter-national, underground
Thunder pounds when I stomp the ground (Woo!)
Like a million elephants with silverback orangutans
You can't stop a train
Who want some? Don't come un-pre-pared
I'll be there, but when I leave there
Better be a household name
Weather man tellin' us it ain't gon' rain
So now we sittin' in a drop-top, soaken' wet
In a silk suit, tryin' not to sweat
Hits somersaults without the net
But this'll be the year that we won't forget
One-Nine-Nine-Nine, and brutha anything goes, be whatchu wanna be
Long as you know consequences, to give and for livin' defenses
Too hot, I'm jumpin' jail
Too low to dig, I might just touch hell
HOT! Get a life, now they gon' sell
Then I might catch you a spell, look at what came in the mail
A scale and some Arm and Hammer, so grow grid and some baby m¨¢ma
Black Cadillac and a pack of pampers, stack of question with no answers
Cure for cancer, cure for AIDS
Make a nigga wanna stay onto it for days
Get back home, things are wrong
We're not really able to spend all alone
before he left, (?), to a ball of power
Thousands of thousands miles per hour
Hello, ghetto, let your brain breath,
believe there's always more
Ahhhhh!
Chorus: 2X
[Dre] Don't pull the thang out, unless you plan to bang
{Choir} Bombs over Baghdad!
[Dre] Yeah! Ha ha yeah!
Don't even bang unless you plan to hit something
{Choir} Bombs over Baghdad!
{Dre} Yeah! Uhh-huh
[Big Boi]
Uno, dos, tres, it's on
Did you ever think a pimp rock a microphone?
Like that there boy and will still stay street
Big things happen every time we meet
Like a track team, crack fiend, dyin to geek
Outkast bumpin' up and down the street
Slam back, Cadillac, 'bout five nigga deep
Seventy-five emcee's freestylin' to the beat
Cause we get krunk, stay drunk, at the club
Should have bought an ounce, but you caught the dub
Should have held back, but you throwed the punch
'Spose to meet your girl but you packed a lunch
No D to-the U to-the G for you
Got a son on the way by the name of Bamboo
Got a little baby girl four year, Jordan
Never turn my back on my kids for them
Should have hit it (hit it) quit it (quit it) rag (rag) top (top)
Before you read up, get a laptop
Make a business for yourself, boy, set some goals
Make a fair dime out of dusty coal
Record number four, but we on a roll
Hold up, slow up, stop, control
Like Janet, planets, Stankonia is only
A movin' like floor commin' straight to Florida
Lock all your windows then block the quarters
Pullin' off on bell 'cause a whippins in order
Like a three piece fist, 'fore I cut your daughter
Yo quiero Taco Bell, then I hit the border
Penny pap rappers tryin' to get the five
I'm a microphone fiend tryin' to stay alive
When you come to A-town well you better not hide
cause the Dungeon Family gonna ride
Hah!
Chorus: 2X
[Dre] Don't pull the thang out, unless you plan to bang
{Choir} Bombs over Baghdad!
[Dre] Yeah! Ha ha yeah!
Don't even bang unless you plan to hit something
{Choir} Bombs over Baghdad!
{Dre} Yeah! Uhh-huh
{Choir}
Bombs over Baghdad! Yeah
Bombs over Baghdad! Yeah
Bombs over Baghdad! Yeah
Bombs over Baghdad! Yeah

He spent fifteen years getting loaded
Fifteen years 'till his liver exploded
What's Bob gonna do now that he can't drink?
The doctor said, "What were you thinkin' 'bout?"
Bob said, "That's the point, I wasn't thinkin' 'bout nothing
I gotta do something else"
Oi, oi, oi
To pass the time he went and shaved his head, a new identity
Twelve holed Doctor Martin boots
And a girl who rides a scooter
Gonna take him out of town
They would get away riding around as the trucks drive by
You could here the motherfuckers go
A couple of lines, an extra thermos of Joe
He'll be kickin' in heads at the punk rock show
Bob's the kinda guy who knows just
Bob's the kinda guy who knows just what to do
When the doctor tells him to quit your drinkin' all the time
Will he ever walk the line to all my friends I feel fine
But will he ever walk the line kickin' ass and bustin' heads
Red suspenders, once a day he shaves his head
But will he ever walk the line?
But will he ever walk the line?
But will he ever walk the line?
But will he ever walk the line?

a brand new impediment, believe is the recipe
and ain't no second-guessing when thinking successfully
taking no for an answer isn't part of the deal
you see the blood sweat and tears, we leave it all on the field
we make our dreams reality, you can tell that it's real
cause i'm a champion, i live the life i said i would live.
[chorus]
you wanna be one, with no one your side

Forwards means backwards
And left is right
My brain is a playground
For a heavy fight
I'm slippin' away
Cause up means down
And fallin' is flyin'
Can't find no groun'
Casual Friday
Casual Friday
Casual Friday
I'm spinning around
Nothing to hold
The fire's out
I'm gettin' so cold
My eyes don't get it
The lights gettin' fast
I'm down and out-
My troubles get vast
Casual Friday
Casual Friday
Everything I've ever said
Everything that I have done
Tryna show her, waste my time
Building mansions in my mind
Now that's all so yesterday
I'm just lighting my fire
Tell the world i'm sick, goodbye
Well as this cold world turns round and round
So much tragedy have I found
If I could take it away I'd do that now
Cause only in my dreams can I smile
[Chorus]
So if I go to sleep, don't wake me up
Cause only in my dreams can I fly away
can I fly away, can I fly away, can I fly away, fly away
So God bless my soul
The pain I feel won't nobody know
Cause this world is evil, and every time I wake up I wanna go home
So what am I to do, but sing a song for you
Cause I feel you also, thats why I never let you go
They say I lost my mind but I did that so long ago
So when I close my eyes, leave me alone
[Chorus]
So if I go to sleep, don't wake me up
Cause only in my dreams can I fly away
can I fly away, can I fly away, can I fly away, fly away
Somebody pray for me, I believe I can fly, yeah crazy me
But at night these angels be singing to me like
la la la la la la la la la la
So as I lay awake at night I drift away into the sky
and thats where I reside Oh yeah Oh yeah
So pray that I'll be just fine
I'll see you when it's time
I'll see you when it's time
[Chorus x2]
So if I go to sleep, don't wake me up
Cause only in my dreams can I fly away
can I fly away, can I fly away, can I fly away, fly away
So far away, there ain't no signal on my phone
Cause I'm a star, so when I hit the bar
I was like cheers!
Everybody who we are
Who would have thought I would've took it this far
Play the guitar
Play the guitar
Play the guitar
Play the guitar
Play the guitar

Pyro maniacs lying in wait
Fulfilling unexploited fields
With red coulored hate
As we come closer
To the edge of the night
We shed our tears
Like the angels in flight
Wail of sirens
I'm drowning in sound
Fiery rotten-Fire holds me down
Fiery rotten-No way of the ground
Fiery rotten
Peagent of fire is breaking free
Meltdown of hearts
Pumps in front of me
Blood-stained tombstones
Will spread to the land
They claim to be god
Good and bad in the hand
Retrace their revolution
And kiss your heart goodbye
Fiery rotten-Fire holds you down
Fiery rotten-No way of the ground
[Verse 1]
Goodbye my love
The country is in need of me
And I heard there were signs for war
So I'm going overseas
So don't cry my love
The skies above will cry for you
And I'll be safe so hopefully
I'll come back home for you
Yeah, yeah
[Chorus]
So please
Tell me it's not true
After all the love I've given
You found someone new
And oh, of all the things I've seen
This has got to be, got to be the greatest tragedy
Oh you, you let it all slip away
But soon you'll find
Soon you'll find (yeah)
What you can't replace
[Female Talking]
I gave away my love
That I promised you I would keep
A thousand deaths I died that day
When two became one
A greater force pulled you away
So I got on my knees and begged
The silence replaced my tears
So goodbye, my love
August 1, 1965
Yeah
Yeah
Yeah
Yeah
[Chorus]
So please
Tell me it's not true
After all the love I've given
You found someone new
And oh, of all the things I've seen
This has got to be, got to be the greatest tragedy
Oh you, you let it all slip away
But soon you'll find
Soon you'll find, yeah
What you can't replace
Yeah
[Verse 2]
Goodbye my love
As I bid farewell to thee
All is fair in love and war
Get up-
And dump your mama's cross
You really got to live
Stand up-
And fight for your freedom
And you better fight it stiff
You gotta breakout for your desire
We're gonna rock, let you play with fire
We're gonna let it rock
We're never gonna stop
Close your eyes-
And start to dream
Of a never ending night
Come on-
Turn up to ten
Up all night, define your rights
You gotta breakout for your desire
We're gonna rock, let you play with fire
We're gonna let it rock
This is the time to follow their orders
This is the time to ignore your Pain
Never asked for your own comfort
Never tried to find your own way
Rigor Mortis, sleeping silent
Lying in coma, wake among dead
You always walked this way
Forever you will stay
No more things to say
Dieing 'til your day
There is a chance to follow your passion
There is a time to cry out your pain
You may ask if there is something
You may try to find your own way
Rigor Mortis, searching silent
Lying in coma, walk among dead
You always walked this way
Forever you will stay
No more things to say
Dieing 'til your day
Rigor Mortis - sleeping silent - wake among dead - dieing till your day
You always walked this way
Forever you will stay
No more things to say
Dieing till your day
I always walked my way
No longer i can stay
No more things to say
[Verse 1]
I was on Miami Beach
Saw the girl of my fantasy
She was into finer things
Bathing suits and diamond belly rings
She was something like I never seen
Made me blow the whistle like the referee
Beside her is where I plan to be
And so to get her I'd do anything
Maybe even start a family
Or even get a house in Sandy Springs
She's so lovely like a melody
So baby, won't you come and jam with me?
[Chorus x2]
And she was so cool
Like the other side of a pillow
So baby, let's groove
Like an instrumental
[Verse 2]
Well come on over to my place
No need to be wasting time
You really must be from outer pace
Cause you really is blowing my mind
Now I done been from state to state
But I ain't never seen your kind
Cause every single time I look at you
Sends a tingling down my spine
Well girl, you must be mighty exhausted
Running these laps through my mind so often
Cause I been fallin', and I been callin'
I think I need a map cause' I'm so lost in
The things you do when you brush your hair
When you take it to the side and toss it over there
And it ain't that fair, cause the way she move
I stare
[Chorus x2]
And she was so cool
Like the other side of a pillow
So baby, let's groove
Like an instrumental
[Verse 3]
And she's so cool
Cool like a pool in the middle of June
I sweep her off her feet
I guess you could say that I give her the broom
And she gets so international with it
Whenever she get in the mood
Cause she's so Australian
Down under on my didgeridoo
And she be killin' it too, yeah
When she go in for the gold
Like a gymnast move
Oh, and what they saying is true, yeah
A lady in the bed but a freak in the room
That's why she's cooly, cooly, cooly
Like a smoothie in a jacuzzi
The opposite of Judge Judy
When she on duty
And she feeling me too
[Chorus x2]
And she was so cool
Like the other side of a pillow
So baby, let's groove
Now I'm gonna go to the place where I know I've been free. If you just gave me one more chance I might have gotten rid of amnesia. Yeah you know. Next time leave when you can instead of just staring at me like that that I don't need this epic bull, I know what I want in life. If you get sick no need for amnesia. K... kkkk.... Kayyy! Leave me like this even though you know it's wrong. I know it and you leave it cuz you dont care what I have. What I think is you and me never came together.
[B.o.B]
Well I got up today
and I put on my shades
and I said I was fine (I'm fine)
but everyone knew that I was lying
if you look at my face
and the way that I behave
you will still see a disguise
even if you was blind (damn)
[Chorus]
but now Im saying bye, goodbye
American Dreaming
American dreaming
its not that hard to find
cause most of the time
I'm American sleeping
I barely can see it
but now Im saying bye, goodbye
As I rhyme and I rap
the average listener is blind to the fact
that my mind has been tapped
I carry the World as it lies on my back
my spine coulda cracked so
please pay me no mind as I laugh
this is all a stage every line is an act
killing the American dream with a trap
like a axe, I'ma put it in a sack
I'ma put it in the back of the black cadilliac
cause I'm travelling
some say that I'm throw like a javelin
I'm really tryna expose to the galaxy
then break off the mould to normalities
people called the election a tradegy
looking at the screen like this can't be happening
I aint saying that I'm some kind of activist
but someting be attacking us
[Chorus]
Okay, bring it back
I was filling my time just posing
like a mannequine you pass by
tryna make it one day to the big league
where the girls aint hard to find
all the time I was just searching
a plastic promised land
and I got myself entangled in a corporated plan (sign here)
but a dream is nothing
and it's everything at the same time
so you never know when you might wake up
and find you was just living a lies
goodbye, just like Trey said
goodbye America, Goodbye
cause anything but the truth is a waste of time
[Intro: B.O.B - talking]
Don't be afraid, when I die. Because...
[Chorus:]
I'm already gone
I'm already way way way up there
I'm already gone
I'm already gone as I'm way up there
I'm all alone
I'm all alone
I'm all alone
I'm all alone as I'm way up there
I'm already gone
[Verse 1:]
I think I need to have somebody come and tell me I'm not as crazy
As much as I may be (may be?)
Maybe, things were better when I was just a baby (baby?)
Cause baby, ha
Ignorance is bliss, the older I get, I guess I get too curious
Lookin' on the Internet for interestin' shit that just way too serious
[Bridge:]
Somewhere along the way
I done went way too far in space
And I guess, can't nobody see me here, cause I'm too far away
I said, somewhere along the way
I done went way too far in space
And I guess, can't nobody see me here, cause I'm too far away
[Chorus:]
I'm already gone
I'm already way way way up there
I'm already gone
I'm already gone as I'm way up there
I'm all alone
I'm all alone
I'm all alone
I'm all alone as I'm way up there
I'm already gone
[Verse 2:]
Some people don't ask why (nah)
But... I ask why, I ask why (why?)
And half the time I try to act right, so I don't catch a bad vibe (nah)
Up in the sky like an aeroplane (pwwwwn)
But no I ain't talkin' 'bout Mary Jane (nah)
And yes, there's only a few people that know what I mean when I say I'm everythang (ha)
[Bridge:]
Somewhere along the way
I done went way too far in space
And I guess, can't nobody see me here, cause I'm too far away
I said, somewhere along the way
I done went way too far in space
And I guess, can't nobody see me here, cause I'm too far away
[Chorus:]
I'm already gone
I'm already way way way up there
I'm already gone
I'm already gone as I'm way up there
I'm all alone
I'm all alone
I'm all alone
I'm all alone as I'm way up there
I'm already gone
[Bridge: x2]
Somewhere along the way
I done went way too far in space
And I guess, can't nobody see me here, cause I'm too far away
I said, somewhere along the way
I done went way too far in space
And I guess, can't nobody see me here, cause I'm too far away
[Chorus:]
I'm already gone
I'm already way way way up there
I'm already gone
I'm already gone as I'm way up there
I'm all alone
I'm all alone
I'm all alone
I'm all alone as I'm way up there
[Intro: B.O.B - talking]
Aye Elpee, I think these motherfuckers forgot where I was from.
It's that nigga B.O.B. EZ Elpee is up on the beat. (DJ Scream)
[Chorus:]
I'm cruisin' through Decatur tryin' to find some of that 'dro
And I see too many haters cause they can't handle they hoes
I say I can't do no better because this is all I know
Ooooh, all I know, all I know, all I know
[Verse 1:]
Cause I was raised in the D-E-C
A/aye I'm from Decatur
Where we get high and ride in sky scrapers
Get money now and ride or die later
Get shot and robbed by your own neighbor
When the cops ridin' by, it ain't safer
They'll probably shock ya ass with them tasers
'Round here, we ain't big on education
Niggas droppin' out but be at the graduation
But this cities where I'm glad to be
Rep it to the fullest, don't get mad at me
Niggas steady hatin' but they clap for me
Cause I got to spit it I'll like a rap disease
'Fo 'sho, girl I got that mojo
Give it to you so slow
That ain't like them other niggas who be havin' no stroll
And girl I'm layin' it down
Reppin' for my city, what's the name of my town?
[Chorus:]
I'm cruisin' through Decatur tryin' to find some of that 'dro
And I see too many haters cause they can't handle they hoes
I say I can't do no better because this is all I know
Ooooh, all I know, all I know, all I know
[Verse 2:]
The east side of the A-T-L
Aye we sit tall
This is the home of slang and shit talk
Gold diggin' hoes don't get no doe
They just get on all fours and get big balls
At night, watch out, the cars get jacked up
And my clothes turn into target practice
Everybody better start haulin' asses
Cause the gas station clerk never saw what happened
Now it's on the news
Now I'm in my school
Niggas chillin' at the water fountain with a tool
'Bout to cut a fool about 3: 42
And the po-po waitin' outside for the queue
They put the cuffs on him, and take him downtown
Now they in the penitentiary a juvenile
I ain't talkin' shit, I'm just reppin' for my town
This is for Decatur and this is how I sound
[Chorus:]
I'm cruisin' through Decatur tryin' to find some of that 'dro
And I see too many haters cause they can't handle they hoes
I say I can't do no better because this is all I know
Ooooh, all I know, all I know, all I know
[Outro: B.O.B]
This shit is all I know. Yeah. Born in South Carolina... raised up in Decatur.
I'm an '80s baby. I'm kinda cool but the hood kinda made me crazy.
[Chorus - Hayley Williams]
Can we pretend that airplanes in the night sky are like
shooting stars
I could really use a wish right now, wish right now,
wish right now
Can we pretend that airplanes in the night sky are like
shooting stars
I could really use a wish right now, wish right now,
wish right now
[Bridge]
Dreaming.
(oh oh oh oh)
Of falling (mmm mmm mmm mmm)
Dreaming (ooh oh oh oh)
[B.o.B - Verse 1]
(ya) Lets pretend like it’s 98
like i’m eating lunch off of styrofoam trays
trying to be the next rapper comin out the A (A-town)
Hoping for a record deal to ignore my pain (ya)
now lets pretend like i’m on the stage
and when my beat drops everybody goes insane (woo)
okay
and everybody know my name and everywhere I go people
wanna hear me sing (oh)
oh yeah and I just dropped my new album on the first
week I did Five-Hundred Thousand
gold in the spring and diamond in the fall and then a
world tour just to top it all off
and lets pretend like they called me the greatest
selling out arenas with big ass stages
and everybody loved me and no-one ever hated
lets try to use imagination
[Chorus]
[B.o.B - Verse 2]
Okay lets pretend like this never happened (never)
like I never had dreams of being a rapper (rapper)
like I didn’t write raps up in all of my classes
like I never used to run away into the blackness
now lets pretend like it was all good (good) like i
didn’t live staring in a notebook (notebook)
like I did the things that i probably knew i should
(should)
lyrics courtesy of http://www.killerhiphop.com
but Ii aint have neighbours thats why they call it hood
(hood yeah)
now lets pretend like i aint got a name before they
ever call me BOB aka Bobby ray
i’m talking back before the mixtapes (yeah) before the
videos and the deals and the fame
before the ever once compared me to Andre before i ever
got on Myspace
before they ever noticed my face so lets just pretend
and make wishes out of airplanes
[Chorus]
[Bridge II]
and it seems like yesterday it was just a dream
but those days are gone (gone gone), they're just
memories
(oh oh)
and it seems like yesterday it was just a dream
but those days are gone (gone gone)
[Eminem]
allright lets pretend Marshall Mathers never picked up
a pen
lets pretend things would have been no different
pretend he procrastinated had no motivation
pretend he just made excuses that were so paper thin
they could blow away with the wind
marshall you’re never gonna make it makes no sense to
play the game there ain’t no way that you’ll win
pretend he just stayed outside all day and played with
his friends
pretend he even had a friend to say was his friend
and it wasn’t time to move and schools were changing
again
he wasn’t socially awkward and just strange as a kid
he had a father and his mother wasn’t crazy as sh-t
and he never dreamed he could rip stadiums and just
lazy as sh-t
f-ck a talent show in a gymnasium bitch you won’t
amount to sh-t quit daydreaming kid
you need to get your cranium checked you thinking like
an alien it just ain’t realistic
now pretend they ain’t just make him angry with this
sh-t and there was no one he could even aim when he’s
pissed it
and his alarm went off to wake him off but he didn’t
make it to the rap Olympics slept through his plane and
he missed it
he’s gon’ have a hard time explaining to Hailey and
Laney these food stamps and this WIC sh-t
cuz he never risked shit he hopes and he wished it but
it didn’t fall in his lap so he ain’t even here
he pretends that…
[Hayley Williams]
Airplanes in the night sky like shooting stars
I could really use a wish right now wish right now wish
right now
Can we pretend that airplanes in the night sky are like
shooting stars
I could really use a wish right now wish right now wish
right now
Uh hmm oh oh oh ooo
Uhu mm aalalalaa
[Chorus Hayley Williams]
Can we pretend that airplanes
In the night sky
Are like shooting stars
I could really use a wish right now (wish right now) (wish right now)
Can we pretend that airplanes
In the night sky
Are like shooting stars
I could really use a wish right now (wish right now) (wish right now)
[Verse 1 B.o.B]
Yeah
I could use a dream or a genie or a wish
To go back to a place much simpler than this
Cause after all the partyin and smashin and crashin
And all the glitz and the glam and the fashion
And all the pandemonium and all the madness
There comes a time where you fade to the blackness
And when youre staring at that phone in your lap
And you hoping but them people never call you back
But thats just how the story unfolds
You get another hand soon after you fold
And when your plans unravel
And they sayin what would you wish for
If you had one chance
So airplane airplane sorry Im late
Im on my way so dont close that gate
If I dont make that then Ill switch my flight
And Ill be right back at it by the end of the night
[Chorus Hayley Williams]
[Verse 2 B.o.B]
Somebody take me back to the days
Before this was a job, before I got paid
Before it ever mattered what I had in my bank
Yeah back when I was tryin to get into the subway
And back when I was rappin for the hell of it
But now a days we rappin to stay relevant
Im guessin that if we can make some wishes outta airplanes
Then maybe yo maybe Ill go back to the days
Before the politics that we call the rap game
And back when aint nobody listened to my mix tape
And back before I tried to cover up my slang
But this is for the Cada, whats up Bobby Ray
So can I get a wish to end the politics
And get back to the music that started this shit
So here I stand and then again I say
Ooohhh B.o.B,
Whats up whats down,
Ladies and gentleman, we are enterin, the 5th dimension,
Right on right on, B.o.B. B.o.B give it to em
Girl im eons and eons beyond these be-ons, another human like me there will never be one,
The planet that I be on, I can never speak on,
The stars is what I sleep on, the moon I put my feet on
The way my aura glows you'd swear Im made of neon, cooler than the free-on that's in your dodge neon
The say the futures now to me it hasn't begun, stay tuned to me and there will never be a re-run
So come and leap on my body, and as we come you'll prolly feel moist like the trees on the tropics
We gone, we out it, no we don't need rockets, no we hop on the mother ship and we gone, we slide it
We slippin thru the nitches, we hyperspace glidin, blasting thru the atmosphere, fighting in the lightning
I know im out my mind girl, but you know you like it, so hop up on my cosmic highway so we can ride it
Short are you going my way, oohhh
I wanna ride on your cosmic highway
Ohhhhh lets go, Ohhhhh lets go
Shorty I cant stay here on the earth no more
Another galaxy we must go
Fresh up out the sky im like a meteorite, so in the studio no I don't need to go right
I just came up in the game cuz you needed more light, so by the time youre done there wont be no more mic
And people ask me bob what kinda language is that, cuz I be blasted to da future I may never come back
And im a leave with a 30 thousand light year lead, headed to a distant planet called B.o.B.
And then im gone, man they're not ignoring it, taking off from half court, air Jordan it
All systems is go in 10 seconds im orderin, hanging from the cosmos like a space ornament
Heat in my left pocket left hand, oh yea I bring the pain, similar to an asteroid that's headed toward your brain
My lane, is something that they really cannot explain, they try to hold me down but its me they cant contain
Short are you going my way, oohhh
I wanna ride on your cosmic highway
Ohhhhh lets go, Ohhhhh lets go
Shorty I cant stay here on the earth no more
Another galaxy we must go
Come and go with me, ill take you to my galaxy
Im talking bout venus, venus, Jupiter, Jupiter, mars, mars
And im sayin girl lets ride all night, and I need ya cuz this ship love to take flight
Lets go, Lets go, come on baby lemme take it off, another second we gon' blast it off
Short are you going my way, oohhh
Come and ride on my cosmic highway
Ohhhhh lets go, Ohhhhh lets go
Shorty I cant stay here on the earth no more
I was on Miami Beach
Saw the girl of my fantasy
She was into finer things
Bathing suits and diamond belly rings
She was something like I've never seen
Made me blow the whistle like the referee
Inside her is where I plan to be
And so to get her I'd do anything
Maybe even start a family
Or even get a house in Sandy Springs
She's so lovely like a melody
So baby, won't you come and jam with me?
And she was so cool
Like the other side of a pillow
So baby, let's groove
Like an instrumental
And she was so cool
Like the other side of a pillow
So baby, let's groove
Like an instrumental
Well come on over to my place
No need to be wasting time
You really must be from Outer Space
Cause' you really is blowing my mind
Now I done been from state to state
But I ain't never seen your kind
Cause' every single time I look at you
Sends a tingling down my spine
Well girl, you must be mighty exhausted
Running these laps through my mind so often
Cause' I been falling, and I been calling
I think I need a map cause' I'm so lost in
The things you do when you brush your hair
When you take it to the side and toss it over there
And it ain't that fair, cause' the way she move
I stare
And she was so cool
Like the other side of a pillow
So baby, let's groove
Like an instrumental
And she was so cool
Like the other side of a pillow
So baby, let's groove
Like an instrumental
And she's so cool
Cool like a pool in the middle of June
I sweep her off her feet
I guess you could say that I give her the broom
And she gets so international with it
Whenever she get in the mood
Cause' she's so Australlian
Down under on my didgeridoo
And she be killing it too, yeah
When she go in for the gold
Like a gymnast move
Oh, and what they saying is true
Yeah, a lady in the bed but a freak in the room
That's why she's cooly, cooly, cooly
Like a smoothie and jacuzzi
The opposite of Judge Judy
When she on duty
And she feeling me too
And she was so cool
Like the other side of a pillow
So baby, let's groove
Like an instrumental
And she was so cool
Like the other side of a pillow
So baby, let's groove
Well, I know-
I'm gonna have to go
As far as style wise
I'll impress-
And I'm gonna get access
To you
So please strip off your reserve
And take a look at me
Take a look, take a look (take a look at me)
Take a look, take a look (I'm trying hard, baby)
Take a look, take a look (take a look at me)
And then you looked at me
Well, let me guess-
That the things I confess
Make you sick
But let me say-
That the day of my decay
Came up together with you
So please strip off your reserve
And take a look at me
Take a look, take a look (take a look at me)
Take a look, take a look (get a move on!)
Take a look, take a look (I'm trying hard, baby)
[B.o.B]
Well you know who it is
you aint even got to ask it
I am not the best I am the next level past it
(x3)
Haters see me passing like damn that bastard (dammit)
cause they outta style like the waterbed mattress
yeh yeh, they thought I fade to the blackness
now they see me everywhere like Samuel L Jackson (muthaf-cker)
but I aint acting I’m only giving classes
by the looks of these grades n-ggas aint passing
no it’s crazy how these n-ggas think,
they be acting like Howard in the paint
like trees and collie all I do is blaze
and they say I’m like a zombie
cause all I want is brains
mine, yes mine mine mine
yeah you look good girl but what is on your mind
Think about it cause all these dimes is nationwide
they just wanna be on my side
but baby this is all I can provide
the whole town will have water if I lay this pipe
I’m on top of the World and I’m so high and
I gotta drop down just to catch my flight
yikes, what amazing heights, Gee wilikers batman,
holy satelites
who the hell are you to tell me ease up on this mic
cause sadly you mistaken me for someone that I’m nite
I mean not, I messed up, but I rock with this stuff
so my stocks just went up
you know my flow
yeah it’s B dot O
yeah it’s B dot O
yeah it’s B dot O
and you know my flow
yeah I hear them talking with that raspy sh-t (shhh)
but what’s an upper classman to a graduate
I said (mumbles?) to it
I’m just playin’ with these n-ggas I aint mad at ‘em
but since you critics want to be that adament
I guess I give you reason to type on your keyboard again
yeah I buy buzz and got the whole web chattering
how ironic in my past what I say ain’t matter then
well it comes with the territory
my life is not an ordinary story
no and I aint talking big this is just how I feel about the situation that I’m in
yeah, no you can never walk in my shoes dawg
even if I got my dude to make your shoes dawg
chu know about the south we go the fools dawg
your girl says she loves the country smooth drawl
thats why there’s groupies ready to remove drawls
they be going heavy duty til that goo’s gone
every single day I wake up to a new song
thats the sound of my formal introduction
I mean “tion”, wassup you know my flow
cause it’s B dot O
and it’s B dot O
and it’s B dot O
you know my flow
so to all the people thats about to hate it
here’s how I feel about you (burps)
there I demonstrated
ha, a politican so opinionated
so my style is addictive like simple lemonade is
I’m in the builing and I’m finna hit the stage
you can feel the tension and the sense of mental stimulation
if she’s with me than she’s not your lady
and as we can see, she loves my babies
me go so crazy me go so loco lately
mostly because they raised me
no heat no cold no AC
yeah I’m jsut syaing how I feel up in this booth
[B.o.B. - Verse 1]
Well, if you guessin' it's me, you guessed correctly
I just stay with a stallion, you would swear I was an equestrian
I hit her with that pipe, call that Nancy Kerrigan
Stay on the greenest greens, call us vegetarians
You be on that minor league, but we smoke professionally
I do my job exceptionally, on point like a decimal is
The way I ride on the beat man I be in the street it's done so effortlessly
Yeah, so these niggas can't sleep on me, there's no Inception in this bitch
I'm top chef, you top ramen, I'm top shelf
No last call, to the bartender, what you got left?
Pour it up, don't stop there, hold your cup, take a shot, yeah
All night we celebrate, cause we everywhere and you not there
[Hook] (x2)
All we do is pour it up
All night, drinks out
(That's how we do it)
(That's how we do it)
And all we do it light it up
All night, all you see is strange clouds
strange clouds, strange clouds
[Lil Wayne - Verse 2]
Blue jeans, I'm faded, mindin' my own data
Smokin' on that strong, that Arnold Schwarzenegger
It's Tunechi Lee you bitch you, you hot as an igloo
Kick back on that glock, call that Ju Jitsu
Hello World, I'm with a yellow girl, number 2 pencil
These rappers is washed up, spin cycle, rinse you
My nigga, all day, all night, half pipe
I dive in that p-ssy, yeah I belly flop, I jackknife and shit
And tell my homies that I say its a party
Got that tech for technical difficulties
I'm top dog, you top ramen, I'm top dog
Piru, gangsters, outlaws
(Young mula Baby)
[Hook] (x2)
[B.o.B - Verse 3]
Well aint no question, yes, it's B.o.B yes definitely
Up in the studio, I got on my necessities
If you want that real shit, you made the right selection
I'm Decatur til I die, yes, I rep that definitely
They say I'm a celebrity, what the f-cks a celebrity?
I guess I must invest in the proper form of protection
And I, say its a curse but it's emotionally a blessing
To a nigga from the hood tryna aim for the top
But I don't even need no directions
I just wake up and then I roll up the purp
These niggas wake up on my dick
At least have some breakfast first
Nigga keep your nourishment first and your mind on my lyrics
Cause what you hoping to accomplish I already did it bitch
I remember the time
When there was no existence
Was a missing ingeredience
Without me for you
I used to drink that frozen rain
Dripping from your eyes
No more cries, no more lies
Without me for you
Spit on me
I don't care anymore
Spit on me
Spit on me
The void in my days
Was so vivid and warm
And the nights were wasted and worn
Without you for me
I took your heart
And danced with my queen
We danced on the lines in between
You were mine
Spit on me
I don't care anymore
Spit on me
Yes sir is Bobby Ray, aka B.O.B. (O)
I can't be eco conscious, I'm always burning trees
And is there fire, fire, call it that third degree,
And call me supersonic I shake the earth beneath ya
Hell yeah you heard of me it's quite a emergency
The way I take the game and I beat it so un-
unmercifully, yeah
Ladies with curly features, wait at concerts to see you
They can roll home with B.O., and maybe service me up
But if you wanna work for me then girl you need your
working visas
And if you ain't working then you just should not
converse with me
That's not that serious, don't take it so personally
Plus currently I prefer the girls who prefer the three
C.P.O.
C.P.O. I think I think I'm Neo
I'm caught up in her Matrix and I think it's time to
reload
And if this is what I caught girl I would have to
appeal
I think that the defendant have some things that must
reveal
Heels ha, heels ha, tell me what's the deal, man
Got me chasing you to see if I could cop a feel, huh
I gotta keep it real, kosher, kosher, kosher
Cause she don't want that bullshit, no sir, no sir, no
Her thighs go round like roller-coaster motors
And like a minute bundle, I had to roll them over
Had to plug the headset into her motorola
This bout to get scary like the end of October
And this is about the time when I hit you with the dope
flow
I got that fire man, and other shit is so so
And this is about the time when I hit you with the dope
flow
I'm at the fryin pan, your shit is so cold
And this is about the time when I hit you with the dope
flow
I got that fire man, and other shit is so so
And this is about the time when I hit you with the dope
flow
I'm at the frying pan, your shit is so cold
So cold like a hobo wearing no clothes and it's snow
globe when the temperature is below froze
I mean below freezing and there's no reason to be so
cheesy, got my own team and my own league
My own lane and my own speed, it's a long road so I
don't sleep
If I don't know you I don't speak, it's a small world
and it's gonna shrink
If you're full of shit, then you're gonna stink
I'm a realist I'm gonna think, with a pair of eyes so
I'm gonna see
I'll be whatever the fuck I wanna be, I'll be
everything except a wanna be
I'll be everything you ever wanna be, if you're clever
enough you can corner me
But what's a corner to me, I'm geometry
So tell me who gave you the authority? Who the fuck are
you? The authority?
What am I supposed to be orderly? pardon my honor
you're charging me?
Saying something I oughta be but I got some much heart
that my arteries will always be partying like a
camaraderie
Man I'm already famous historically so my story is
already glorious
Just like P Diddy victorious to the B.I.G. Notorius,
I'm a champion, I'm a warrior, I bring war to ya,
So if you got beef that's unfortunate, we'll hang ya'll
out like portraits
And this is about the time when I hit you with the dope
flow
I got that fire man, and other shit is so so
And this is about the time when I hit you with the dope
flow
I'm at the frying pan, your shit is so cold
And this is about the time when I hit you with the dope
flow
I got that fire man, and other shit is so so
And this is about the time when I hit you with the dope
flow
When you look back at your life
You think you've seen it all
When you look into my eyes
You think the mask will fall
Do you think you're the ironman?
Do you think i'm a foe?
You don't know
You don't know
When you watch the world go down
Do you think you're secure?
When I'm sad, rest my head in pain
Do you think you know the cure?
The world deserves the answers
And not a saviour in its show
You don't know
You don't know
The world deserves the answers
And not a saviour in its show
You don't know
[hook: b.o.b.]
if you think that i'm out cold
if you think that i'll run
if you think that it's over
you couldn't be more wrong (couldn't be more wrong)
if you think that it's done
if you think that you won
if you think that it's over
you couldn't be more wrong
[verse 1: b.o.b.]
i think it's funny that they think they got us all beat and defeated
i swear they must be dreaming 'cuz they think that we're retreating
yeah, they be the type, constantly in search for beefing
'till they see it, then that ass become a vegan
that's why on this beat it's no doubt
yall already know i'm 'bout my flow, muthaf-ckas say i sold out?
must be talking about my shows
matter of fact, anytime that you finna reach for a dream or a goal or for anything
you will have many enemies, look at jesus and martin and lincoln and kennedy
[hook]
[verse 2: b.o.b.]
yeah, impostors hate the truth because you tell it
so i know when they around, they so jealous, i can smell it
the haters always die, the prestigious never perish
so i'll be never buried
that's why i'm never threatened by these little boys with big toys
they can't aim, it's piss poor, what you holding the clip for?
put the gun down, get a clipboard
so tell them haters that they better pipe down,
we bring hell like a red man with a black beard and a pitchfork
[hook]
[verse 3: spodee]
uh, you totally incorrect if you thought that it was some pressure
with each endeavor i treasure raises my level of pleasure
i'm flabbergasted by fellas, really think that they can see me
i'm saving my special specimens specifically for t.v
ohhh, what 'till they see me out with a case so straight make a fake hoe hate
me and bobby ray like this, okay, man a plastic surgeon can't fix her face
all these rap niggas shit so gay, and i'ma keep pimping until that bitch locate
my foot in the ass of a prick okay, say you harder than grand hustle, bitch, no way
You would rather be far away, just to have it go all your way
But can you afford the cost to pay
Your living in a dangerous wonderland [x5]
Well welcome to the wonder
The land of make believe
That make you believe your safe
Because this is the place to be
You feel alright as long as the feminine war stays overseas
And anyone over the border
You look at like the opposing team
Is this what it's sposed to be
Or am I just talkin emotionally
What if I expose my beliefs
That I hold real close to me
Would you call me crazy and put my face all over ya magamazines
Tell me
Do you actually think I'm as the same as I'm a have you see
You would rather be far away, just to have it go all your way
But can you afford the cost to pay
Your living in a dangerous wonderland [x5]
When I say the masses
Millions of kids in classes
One of them got kept backwards
For failure to do what they asked em
They will say he was stubborn and acted
Like he wasn't the son of a pastor
So he got him a pen and pad then
Started rappin and singin and clappin
Just to make the days go by faster
And one day he decided he had it
And he left and he never look back at
All the relative mathamatics
So he took the lies and detracted them
And divided them like a fraction
And he opened his eyes and realized
That he tapped into the galactic
Off he blasted
You would rather be far away, just to have it go all your way
But can you afford the cost to pay
Your living in a dangerous wonderland [x5]
You would rather be far away, just to have it go all your way
But can you afford the cost to pay
Your living in a dangerous wonderland [x5]
Wonderland [x16]
You would rather be far away, just to have it go all your way
But can you afford the cost to pay
what ever happened to bobby ray
he used to be here for us,
then he got famous and left all of his fans in dust
we never hear from you, you're constantly changing
and your relatives always miss you
a family occasions and your mother misses you too
since all the fortune you been, too busy recording
now she feels unimportant and your daddy been going through it
since he lost is mother the least you could do is call him and show him
you support him
i never thought you would sell out, people come in so cocky
i asked your for a picture after your show
you walked right by me
i'm like ain't this the dude that said it ain't about the price tag
now on your records all that you do is brag
come on, bob, i thought you was better than that dog
what happened to cloud 9,
generation lost, you are my idol
just when i thought i'd give up on everything
i heard you play this familiar melody, melody, melody, melody
i heard you play this familiar melody, melody, melody, melody
melody, melody, melody, melody
whatever happened to b.o.b he once was my favorite
i swear to god that i had all of these mistakes on my playlist
he was hood but so different at the same time
he was like a breath of fresh air everytime he rhymed
and everybody was on him, and the world fell in love
the girls, the money, the lifestyle, all the above
i guess he stopped giving a fuck, for all of us little people
with your shades on, we can't even see you
is that what happens when somebody makes it off of rapping?
they take the fame in change, like it's all automatic
where's the integrity, you're on that other shit
you don't even sound the same, i liked your other shit
but still i stand beside you, cause i'm way deep inside you
that's more than what meets the eye,
i swear on the bible, you are my idol
just when i thought i'd give up on everything
i heard you play this familiar melody, melody, melody, melody
i heard you play this familiar melody, melody, melody, melody
melody, melody, melody, melody
i watched my whole life change in a couple of years
who would have ever thought i would have ever caught the world by the ear
i swear this shit is so much bigger than i had figured
but if it wasn't meant to be, this wouldn't be my career
it's like, people only see it the way it appears
but they never see the ropes, and the bullies and the gears
blood sweat and tears? we all we sweat is tears
in the middle of this rap game, on the battlefield
all of these interviews trying to fall me
you never know trying to play you and make you look foney
i live and die for my team, these niggas are more than my homies
we put it all on the line, we gave up all our belongings
for this rap shit, cause at the end of the day
it ain't just rap shit, i call it making a way
for our survival
just when i thought i'd gave up on everything
i dreamed about this familiar melody, melody, melody, melody
i dreamed about this familiar melody, melody, melody, melody
i dreamed about this familiar melody, melody, melody, melody
i dreamed about this familiar melody, melody, melody, melody.
On the battlefield I am the commander in
The war between the worlds, time to wheel the cannons in
I’m out here salamandering
They out here slandering
Try to smear a niggas image down, damn who’s the camera man?
Where’s the man to man talk
What a f-ck? Get up off the nipple, man
Let your momma have a mammogram,
Busting like Sammy Sam
Niggas can’t even see me on the beat
Like a blind pianist at a band exam
But f-ck a punch line, f-ck a metaphor
F-ck the niggas who said they wasn’t feeling me before
Life is like a movie, I just write the score,
Let me dumb it down, maybe you can understand me more!
I got no time for this shock jock, get up above my cock,
Put the mic down, you’re looking sixty four!
I’m guessing I’m the nigga that they love to hate
But they still watch a nigga, and they pay attention more!
Closer to my words, and closer you observe
Trying to decipher the flow you niggas know this shit is absurd!
You notice every verb and adjective and every syllable
And why compare to me there is nobody who’s identical
Instrumental general, Grand Hustle emerald
I’m ballin’ over here, give a f-ck about your interviews
Niggas talk, hoes too, but they know I’m one of the coldest overall and general
The more I ball the more the haters run
When you f-ck the game, the problems gonna come
Back down never, I’m never known to run
F-ck life and get high, that’s what I call overcoming obstacles
Get up of my tosticles, I got the sun to control
I’m callin’ audibles, I know what I gotta do
When you travel on this road, man after a while
Nobody’s either on the side of you
Reaching out the other artists for a wider view
In reality artists just don’t have the time for you
It is what it is, I don’t take it personal
But it’s a jungle out, and lions don’t eat vegetables.
I mean veggies, I’m all about my
I don’t smoke and I’m never on the reggie
I’m going full speed, but I don’t know where I’m heading
So keep up my yard and never touch my hedges
I’m on the edge, you should never cross the line
Niggas feel safe when they’re online
But I’m out here touring, they out here keyboarding
I’m bout to show what the f-ck a high score is

They said hip hop was dead

Well see what happen was
They started assuming stuff
Cause they didnt think that b.o.b was goin to get here soon enough
I like thick hoes that like to get the beutty rough
So when I am in the room with her
That's what I do to her
I send her ass to Jupiter
Stretch uterus
And when I'm through with her
Man I put my boot in her (ooohhh!)

Cindy Lavinsky
Went to her school where the kids that she did meet
Did not treat her friendly
She in elementary
So when she went home, it was wrong evidently
So lonely and empty
Well, lookin' for love in a club got her drunk
Met a thug named Bud, got her pregnant with a son
Here he come
In a sub-division there's a couple engaged in a fuss
One of them grabs a gun {gun cocks}
In the street, all alone, there's a kid
Tryin' to wipe away the tears after what his momma did
There it is

Penny Lavinsky
Adopted at three, a foster home's where he's livin'
His pockets are empty
So when he turns 16
He just ran away and then he moved to the city
And had a daughter named Lizzy
Well, in a mansion, in a room, on a bed
There's a girl so depressed
From the drugs and the stress
All the diamonds on her dress still can not relieve stress
That she faces from the world
Why these niggas offer it?
Evidence she's obsessed, but what she feels she can't express
All she want is happiness
But all she know is big success
Nothin' less
"All the lonely people
Where do they all come from? "
[Chorus:]
"I look at all the lonely people"
"I look at all the lonely people"
"I look at all the lonely people"
I see 'em, I see 'em, I see 'em, there they go
"I look at all the lonely people"
I see 'em, I see 'em, I can see 'em, there they go
"I look at all the lonely people"
I see 'em, I see 'em, I see 'em, there they go
"I look at all the lonely people"
I see 'em, I see 'em, I see 'em, there they go
[Bridge:]
I know that you've been havin' a lonely day
All you gotta do, is find a way
Maybe in your dreams you can fly away
Away, away, away
I know that you've been havin' a lonely day
All you gotta do, is find a way
Maybe in your dreams you can fly away
Away, away, away
[Chorus:]
"I look at all the lonely people"
"I look at all the lonely people"
"I look at all the lonely people"
I see 'em, I see 'em, I see 'em, there they go
"I look at all the lonely people"
I see 'em, I see 'em, I can see 'em, there they go

Yes,I feel the end,the end is close,
The same thing happened eons ago,
To know exactly you have to read up some more,
Everyday technology speeds up some more
As is above,so is below,
Some feel the heat,Yeah, some feel the cold,
We are the souls, Yes, We have been chose,
Some roll with angels and demons and ghosts,
Buth Shhhh!Hold up Bob,don't go there,
You know that they watching,they all see and stare,but,
They can't stop me I'm already there,
And ya'll ain't seen sh*t but you're already scared,
I'm gone!!! High like fructose fructose,
You wanna know the truth,really?
You don't You don't,It will blow you out your mind like a UFO,UFO
I'm basically a resident of Pluto Pluto,You know,
But you'll probably be the same one hating,
Saying every rapper is in the Freemasons,
While the cops giving out free mace to your face,now how does that taste?
I'm outta my mind,these videos telling ya'll lies,bro,
Telling yall we holding evil hand signs bro,
Last time i checked that from the East side bro,
So do your research and make your own mind up,
Cuz us musicians have influence on this mic,but,
They don't like that so they conquer and divide, Double H, N, D
Hip-Hop never dies,so shoot all you want
But we fly,because you know,
No one man should have all that power,
Obviously cuz there's only one power,
But nevermind ya'll keep worshiping towers,
While the clock keeps handing yall hours,
But pucker up because the truth gets sour,
More sour than the sour these alot of hour,
Gimme bout an hour,I give ya 50 vowels,
When i brainstorm it's like a shower,
So pull out your towels,and don't let them play you,
Do your own thing, fu*k what they do,
And if you're good at something make sure they pay you,and if not then take a Thank You!
Whether they praise you or whether they hate you,
It's ll about the attention that they pay you,
Ya'll on that grape drink,try this grape juice,
Shout outs to Grand Hustle,we got that grape fruit,
And yes it's evident we're better than the rest of these competitors,
Really there ain't no one that's ahead of us,
Yeah i bust these verses of ecc. ecc,cos they watching ya'll like the federals...
Ouuuuughh
Kadooosh Kadoosh Kadooooshhh
On and on
It's how I do
It's B.o.B and im out
[Chorus]
And there you are standing all alone, in the rain like oh no
And you don't know where to go, cause you're in the rain
And there you are standing all alone, in the rain like oh no
And you don't know where to go, but you're in the rain
And it keeps pouring down on you, the suns gone and your feelin' blue
And it's pouring down on you, but you keep on movin' through
And it's pouring down on you, the suns gone and your feelin' blue
And there you are standing all alone in the rain
And the rain comes pouring down
Yeah yeah
[Verse 1]
By no means am I livin' in vain, but I
Sit in the rain, I'm addicted to pain yeah
It feels good when it enters my veins
And every time I wake up it's a similar day
Cause I'm stuck in my ways
And everywhere I go the suns runnin' away
But this is what I get for my troublesome ways
So here comes the rain to fuck up my parade
I ain't got nothing to say
[Chorus]
And there you are standing all alone, in the rain like oh no
And you don't know where to go, cause you're in the rain
And there you are standing all alone, in the rain like oh no
And you don't know where to go, but you're in the rain
And it keeps pouring down on you, the suns gone and your feelin' blue
And it's pouring down on you, but you keep on movin' through
And it's pouring down on you, the suns gone and your feelin' blue
And there you are standing all alone in the rain
And the rain comes pouring down
Yeah yeah
[Verse 2]
And as I fall into the rain
Swimmin' through the flood, tryin' to unclog the drain
If you tryin' to find me my address is Memory Lane
Livin' amongst the darkness, so the dungeon is my domain
Higher than the mountains feeling lower than the plains
But this is what I chose so how can I complain?
And tryin' to find some brain is, really not my aim
Stuck inside my head, so it replays again
[Chorus]
And there you are standing all alone, in the rain like oh no
And you don't know where to go, cause you're in the rain
And there you are standing all alone, in the rain like oh no
And you don't know where to go, but you're in the rain
And it keeps pouring down on you, the suns gone and your feelin' blue
And it's pouring down on you, but you keep on movin' through
And it's pouring down on you, the suns gone and your feelin' blue
And there you are standing all alone in the rain
And the rain comes pouring down
(feat. Janelle Monae)
[Chorus:]
The drugged boy's steady show time,
The streets don't give a damn.
They're filled with such pollution.
The kids don't stand a chance.
We're trapped inside a matrix,
Forced to play our hands,
We're filled with so much hatred.
The kids don't stand a chance
[x2:]
I said the kids don't, the kids don't stand
The kids don't stand a chance.
Well, since I was planted at birth,
I abandoned my own planet and I landed on earth.
As a kid I never understood what I observed, and
Some of it was strange, but most of it disturbed me.
Always in detention for the lack of my attention,
You can call it deficit, but really I just didn't listen.
And I was always missing, the teacher's like where is bobby simmons but
Trying to get a record deal is all I can remember.
It's funny cause looking back to the past that I had,
All my days in the streets trying to prove that I was bad,
I still elevated to the level that I'm at
I still elevated to the level that I'm at.
[Chorus]
Sometimes it's hard to grow
While living in fear of the unknown.
How can he ever give love,
When no love is in his heart.
A child can barely sleep at night,
Too worried bout tomorrow.
And what it behold, he drowned himself,
Deep down in his sorrow.
Will you run or will you show your life,
Tell a stories, live and try.
See it when we're given hope,
That we would know we can grow.
[Intro]
Yeuh,
To all my smokers and my hundred blunt rollers
No no no no I'm talkin bout
Real tokers who aint never ever sober
Hahaha sober! ahhhhh
Yeuh yeuh yeuh
Check me out now
Check me out now
Go head then..
[Verse 1]
Allow me 2 introduce myself again
Bobs at tha office but bobby ray is in
Please leave a message wait let me get a pen
I dont really need it cuz I spit it off the list
And everytime I come around I look like I'm a pimp
Really thats the dip because tha benz is on my hip
They love me cuz I tell them what they really wanna hear
Slap by on that booty with a hundred dolla bill
WHAT!?
Nah I'm just playin man sometimes I kid
Jus so my job doesnt get my dot in this
Crumble up tha bud put it in a spliff
Put it in tha air like I'm levitating shit
They say bob how you feel about tha fame
Really aint famous till obama know my name
Tha games in a drought it was going down tha drain
When I come around man its prolly gon' rain (so whats you sayin)
Maybe I'm just sayin I can switch up tha flow
How you cant feel me when I'm rocking this show
Going over seas to a whole different coast
Come back get a sack full of that like woah

And everytime I rip they be like thats dope

[Verse 2]
Oh oh oh
Well the biz the biz I'm in tha muzik biz
I really couldnt tell you what the main objective is
Cuz really that depends
On if you got a hit or just a good song that they never ever spend
And then that depends on tha genre that your in
If your a rock artist or a hip hop man
Thats where I come in
They try to box me in
But I am not a square nor a parallelogram
Yes I got several fans through japan n maryland
They try to shoot me down but I never ever land
And no man could never ever walk in my pants
Or live what id lived or be what I am
Damn I dont give a damn all up in this booth tryna lay this shit down
Yeuh so let me turn it down
We all around its a mixtape now

[Verse 1]
Since day 1 I said f-ck the fame and everything it dealt
But the fame is really here just to facilitate the wealth
But the wealth attracts you haters like you mosquitoes to a well
And the waters getting deeper so I’m well set out to sail
Someone called my cell and left a voicemail
That said congratulations on the million record sales
As I’m flipping over furniture knocking sh-t off the shelf
I told myself I’ll never get too deep not to take a breathe
But I’m sinking
[Hook]
And it’s so hard to breathe, yeah
And even more so to sleep when no one cares
It was all I can eat
But now I’m sinking
So deep, I can’t come up for air
[Verse 2]
Yeah I’ve seen the valley of the shadow of death
I’ve seen the mountains, the wild childhood
Thats why I sing about it
I just try to move on and keep my peace about it
But Come to think about it I can’t even count the days that I’ve spent, starving tryna find some decent housing
That’s why I’m always smiling but on this beat I seem so violent
So ask me ’bout the music scene and what the f-ck I think about it
Time flies, I guess thats why I’m bugging
Just yesterday I was rapping with my brother and my cousin
If you had the stove or toaster on you couldn’t use the oven
We knew that we were struggling, we just acted like we wasn’t
It’s either make it rapping, if not that than hustlin’
So all I see is magazine covers in this game
You either surface or you plummet
It’s a thin line and I’m just tryna keep my head above it
Damn...
[Hook]
And it’s so hard to breathe
And even more so to sleep when no-one cares
It was all I can eat
But now I’m sinking, so deep, I can’t come up for air
[Bridge]
Air, I-I-I
I sink away, cause I sink away
I sink away
I sink away, I sink away
Get carried away, get carried away
[Hook]
And it’s so hard to breathe
And even more so to sleep when no-one cares
It was all I can eat
But now I’m sinking, so deep, I can’t come up for air
Damn, it’s never in the plans, but hey it’s a long way than beating pots and pans (x3)
Drinkin' a German beer a ha
With a Cuban cigar
In the middle of Paris
With a Dominican broad
Great head on her shoulders
She probably studied abroad
She transfered to Harvard
Then Kings college in March
She says that I'm her favorite
'Cause she admires the art
Michaelangelo with the flow
Picasso with the bar
She's well put together like a piece by Gershwin
Renaissance style
Tonight is picture perfect
So smile[Hook]
And pack your bags real good baby
'Cause we'll be gone for a while
OHHHHHHHHH
Tell me how you feel
Whats your fantasy-oh
I see it's on a beach down in Mexico
You can put your feet up
Be my señorita
We ain't gotta rush
Just take it slow
You'll be in the high life
Soakin' up the sunlight
Anything you want is yours
I'll have you livin' life like you should
You'll say you never had it so good
Nah nah nah nah nah nah nah nah nah nah
You've never had it so good
Nah nah nah nah nah nah nah nah nah nah
Sufferin' from first class "cabin fever"
5 hour layovers from Norway to Egypt
I'm to the point like the pyramids of Giza
Still I'm to the left like the tower out in Piza
I'm feelin' single baby
I could use a feature
Swagger like Caesar
I'll get you a Visa
And we could go to Italy and maybe see the Colosseum
I'll be DaVinci if you'll be my Mona Lisa
Now smile[Hook]
I'm feelin' kinda singular
how bout lets make it plural
Spin the globe
Wherever it lands
That's where we'll go
We'll hit up Europe
Yeah
And spend some Euros
We'll maybe visit Berlin
The walls with the murals
This is your month baby
The sign of the Virgo
Proper reservations
Glasses full of Merlot
A roset, a burgundy
Trapped like turbo
Brush up on your español
We're Barcelona bound
My name is Bob
And I don't have a job
[Chorus:]
I don't know why I say these things
But it's the reason why I sing my song
It's why I sing my song
I don't know why I say these things
But it's the reason why I sing my song
It's why I sing my song
I don't know why I say these things
But it's the reason why I sing my song
[Verse 1:]
Catch me cruisin through Decatur with my streetwalkers
Spittin, pimpin at these women, ain't a sweet talker
A young country boy, came up out the creekwater
What a grizzly boy, lookin like a beast on it
Now I don't like the law, so fuck the police department
Pullin me over, and I don't even be speedin on em
Well I think it's cause they don't like me, well me so sorry
Cause I got all the caucasians saying that he's so bossy
Well long story short, this is me and I'm bossy
If I wasn't smokin weed, then I'd be drinking coffee
Well pour this in my cup, just to show I give a fuck bout what ya'll be thinkin need what I'm sayin, gone and zip it up
I don't even know why I'm in this goddamn booth
[Chorus:]
But it's the reason why I sing my song
It's why I sing my song
I don't know why I say these things
But it's the reason why I sing my song
It's why I sing my song
I don't know why I say these things
But it's the reason why I sing my song
[Verse 2:]
If you ain't noticed I don't really give a damn
This life's too hard to follow rules and be takin exams
So I decided to do music just to make some fans
So while I got the mic I want to say fuck Uncle Sam
I just think of crazy shit and try to make it jam
So when I'm tired of rappin I sing the best I can
Simpy cause I ain't got nothin better to do with time
I'd rather producin rhymes than slangin and shootin dimes
I ain't really got nothin else to say but I'll finish it
Just to show ya'll how ya'll can benefit if I'm generous
I'll just write a verse, sit back and collect percentages
It's 4 o'clock and I don't even think I'm finished yet
[Chorus:]
But it's the reason why I sing my song
It's why I sing my song
I don't know why I say these things
But it's the reason why I sing my song
It's why I sing my song
I don't know why I say these things
But it's the reason why I sing my song
It's why I sing my song
It's why I sing my song
It's why I sing my song
My song
My song
Hey- hahaha!
Watch out for your sweethearts
Evil hands are coming to town
Runnin' rabid where the maniac's banned
Walkin' disaster in a promised land
Heavy-Metal soul cry
Fire breaks free
Brain shredd - Glowing like a termite
Soul shredd - Come on, move out my body
Heart shredd - fallin' to the night side

Totally out of control- hahaha
Child of the brainsaw starts to soar
And the birth of a bastard
Creates the brave new war

Chorus:
Shoot up the station,
T.V. station, T.V.
Shoot up the station,
T.V. station,
Shoot up the station,
T.V. station!
Shoot up the television... in demolition,
It's how we fucked the system in missionary position.
Listen! It's my intention for giving this transition,
This is for the citizens livin in glass prisons...
Coming up in my position,
The product of my condition,
With a business plan in my head,
And the vision of a politician.
It's funny how we mirror what we witness,
Cause this is broadcast television from the villa to the village...
So therefore we go bang-bang,
On your corporate main frame,
We don't want that watered down,
We don't want that plain jane,
Take back that diet coke,
We don't want the same thing!
This is not a protest,
Better yet a bang-bang,
Now everybody say....
Chorus:
Shoot up the station,
T.V. station, T.V.
Shoot up the station,
T.V. station,
Shoot up the station,
T.V. station!
I'm in a different realm,
I live in off mode...
And I forgot already what you're about to know.
You know Im riding for ...that bullshit...
I beat the game already,
Now I'm just trying to coach.
The truth is scary, its very revolutionary,
The signal is gone and faded,
The televisions are buried ...,
Have you heard of the beast?
Well we all live in the belly,
Inhabitants of the ...jungle to silicon vally.
There is nothing to fear, not even illuminati...
As evil as things appear, perception is just reality.
I ain't really here,
A holographic anatomy,
Really Im on the ship with the planetary academy.
Chorus: (x2)
Shoot up the station,
T.V. station, T.V.
Shoot up the station,
T.V. station,
Shoot up the station,
Systems go
Satellite, Satellite
Minus 10

And you can feel it if you tune into your radio

Midnight vibe

She wanna pop bottles and chill with older folk
Hang with all the models and all the centerfolds
Showing off her body now watch her strike a pose
Tryna get beside me so she can get a hold of the ol’
Bobby Ray Bands
She want them Ray Bands
She want them Ray Bands (Bobby Ray Bands)
She want them Ray Bands (Bobby Ray Bands)
She want them Ray Bands (Bobby Ray Bands)
[B.o.B.]
She wants them Ray Bands cause them bands are gorgeous
She looking for a sponsor and I ain’t talking corporate
She after that endorsement
Ever since she saw me on the Forbes list
She be getting zero’s from heroes
They’re Zorros with horses
Like Mustangs and Porsches imported from Japan
She from Atlanta but she on that Cali strand
That’s that overseas money, call ‘em Taliban
She WMD, aw yeh spring to winter
So pencil her in for breakfast, brunch, lunch, and dinner
Ain’t no incidentals
She want them bands like a freelance parade (All day)
Compliments of Bobby Ray
[Hook]
She wanna pop bottles and chill with older folk

[B.o.B.]
Look, she want them Ray Bands, them Ray Bands, that coin
Gourmet top-house sirloin, courtesy of ya boy
She she she she think I owe her, Des Moines
Quit being annoying, do something useful and roll a joint
You see business over bullsh-ts my company policy
And my team’s going green and I ain’t talking ’bout pottery
You tryin’ to hit the party, she tryin’ to hit the lottery
And if they watchin’ girl, grandfather clockin’ it
I don’t pop bottles, I got pop dollars
And after Strange Clouds, I’mma drop my rock album
Violent bravado, call me Bobby Bravo
Every play is crucial, yeah that’s my motto
[Bridge]
Said wassup, yeah we do this all the time
Where the real freaks who wanna have a good night?
If ya feel that, let it go it’s alright
The music got you movin’ and you’re losin’ your mind
So let me know if it’s alright
I just wanna know, shawty, have a good time
So why don’t you let go, let go
You’re losing control
The music got you movin’ and you’re losing your mind
[Hook]
She wanna pop bottles and chill with older folk
Hang with all the models and all the centerfolds
Showing off her body now watch her strike a pose
Tryna get beside me so she can get a hold of the ol’
Bobby Ray Bands

[Chorus]
When I wake up from a full night of sleep,
I put my best foot forward indeed,
And as the colors begin to sink,
They seem to say to me, C'mon,
[x4]C'mon, C'mon, ya gotta put me on, (You gotta put me on)
[Verse 1]
Ever since I first arrived here,
I've been, on the run like an eye tear,
And it, took me a while to get my life steered,
But now I'm in the moment,
While I reside here,
Yeah,
That's why I coordinate with my gear,
So you could feel the Feng Shui, soon as I'm near,
Yeah,
And people have the nerve to say that I'm weird?
But you just in a box,
So get your mind clear,
Yeah, Yeah,
That good music man, we gotta hear,
So we could get the vibe high, like a light gear,
Or maybe,
Fly high like five deer,
Call me Santa Claus,
When I come through I gotta put 'em on...
[Voice Echoey]
On...
I gotta put 'em on...
[Chorus]
[Verse 2]
Well, ever since I was eleven,
I have, found heaven in my self expression,
Hah,
Nope, my childhood I never left it,
Yes, I'm still a big kid, though I never stress it,
Yet, memory is ever lastin,
So, I make moves with a special method,
That, allow my dreams to get manifested,
So your plastic Promise Land, no, I can't accept it,
Hah,
This life I lead is a very blessed one,
So, that's why fans have many questions,
Hah,
Yet, I still leave any guessin,
I'm an artist so I gotta have a bad collection,
I put 'em on...
[Voice Echoey]
I put'em on...
[Chorus x2]
[x4]C'mon, C'mon, ya gotta put me on, (You gotta put me on)
[Hook]
How much must I repeat?
We only play for keeps
No time-outs, no free throws
No refs, no penalties
No handouts, no pit stops
No cheat codes, no sleep
But the drinks are on us
If you with it then pull up a seat[Verse]
When you're roaming through the jungle talk is nothing, talk is cheap
Time is money, money is power
Power corrupts eventually, damn
So what are the options?
What are the choices left for me?
What other rul is left to break?
I guess my fate is a a quest for me
Man got a dog and ain't got no leash
Man got a crib, it ain't got no lease
Man got a flow that got no brain
But i still get brain, no hands no teeth
Nowadays, all of the killers on the beat
But where I was raised all of the killas was down the street
Better do your research
Feeling like i fell out of the sky and landed feet first
My squad go hard, my squad go concrete, watch my ream work
Hell yea, you can tell that the boy finna eat cause i took my seat first
Three course meal, full entree, refills and I want my dessert
So why not make a toast? Tomorrow could always be worse
Now keep them bottles coming by the kiloliter
And get that Ana off your chest, try keep a clean shirt
I'm so Grand Hustle, you ain't even in my league sir
What's up with these nerds?
They be out here, gettin' their salads tossed, gettin' their leave turned
That game just ain't what it used to be, the quality is blurred
But a dying breed survives and a dynasty emerged
So put it in the air if you entirely concur
She call me hippie cause i live without any concern
Up on this green earth, I'm on them green herbs
Yeah yeah yeah, I stay in them trees like the Keeblers
And they say that i look higher in person
As a kid I played in the yard, but now I'm astro turfin'
I lived the actual version of the fantasies they utter
Made up stories of threesomes, they must just be seeing double
Run for cover, here comes trouble
My heart is going cold so i gotta sleep with warmer covers
Polar bear pimpin', solar flare spittin'
Somebody tell 'em that this is professional stuntin', don't attempt it
Society is twisted, they tryna take us under
So when you see them folks, don't forget to warm a brother
I made it out alive but still the battle is a struggle
Veni, vidi, vici, I came, I saw, i conquered
They mad cause i murdered the game
And their name wasn't in the will
You see, most of these haters are mad rappers who just still waiting on a deal
And they jealous of my success cause my shoes cost more than a bill
But i'll never sit down at another table unless I'm invited to the meal
To some it's like conquering mountains, to me it's like stepping on hills
Remember the images in your mirror can be bigger than they appear
And the truth can be hard to swallow, depending the size of the pill
And by the looks it's about the time that you had your prescription filled
My life, full length feature presentation
There are no intermissions, no time for commercial breaking
A fighter in his prime, a legend in the making
There's no debating when you let your numbers make the statement[Hook]
How much must I repeat?
We only play for keeps
No time-outs, no free throws
No refs, no penalties
No handouts, no pit stops
No cheat codes, no sleep
But the drinks are on us
You're looking at my pictures
Smilin' silent, but bright
They never saw the light-
Never saw the light of day
Declared forgotten-
Locked away
But something's gonna change
Yeah-
Something's gonna change with them
Yeah-
Do you cry?
Do you cry?
Tears are falling
Better keep your pictures within
Don't cry 'em out..
Do you wonder what they see?
Brittle wood, that never should
Never should-
Be a home
Lost relicts
Of glaring love
The became the only thing-
The only thing for you to cry
Yeah-
Do you cry?
Do you cry?
Tears are falling
Better keep your pictures within
Don't cry 'em out...
What do pictures say?
I'm gonna tell it to you
Listen to your heart-
They were tearing me apart
From you
Take your time
And take a look at your life
Remember me, when I loved thee
Don't forget and fly away
Yeah-
Do you cry?
Do you cry?
Tears are falling
Better keep your pictures within
They say, "B.O.B why not put the guitar down and rap? "
It's easier to sing than put my soul on a track
Cause the media has made a competition out of rap
So constantly they comparin' me to 3 Stacks (Andre 3000)
I try to grow freely but they hold me to my past
Sayin' the music that I'm makin' doesn't appeal to the mass
What am I to do about that?
When the syndicated radio is always playin' trash
Every single song is the same old track
About Patron, Patron, Patron and swag, swag, swag
Patron and swag and the whole hood is singin'
"Patron and swag"
And everybody wonder why the kids so bad
[B.o.B]
If you asked me whats on my mind you probably won’t believe it
cause if life was one big pool I’d be in the deep end
so I play my role and never ever speak it
like a secret
and all the while you just just to figure me out
[Chorus - B.o.B]
But you can’t see past my shades
past my shades
past my shades
and you can’t see past my shades
past my shades
past my shades
and you can’t see past my shades
past my shades
past my shades
[B.O.B]
Well ask me a question I tell you no lies
cause theres nothing to hide my souls in my eyes
and Im ahead of my time but I cannot rewind
the only thing I fear is the mirror in my bathroom
people look and try to see a disguise
but there is nothing that nobody can’t see in (?)
if its a song with a rhyme or a verse with a line
then you wanna stay in my mind
[Chorus]
[Lupe Fiasco]
uh, who else but (?)
you know I got two belts the black and the white one
I begin and I master
I see in my eye glasses
but they sayin’ what I’m seeing through is false like Ross
I can hear him through the wall like walk
this way they tryin’ to dissuade my thoughts
I’m a slave to myself and disobey my boss
it’s all in disarray this parade I walk
they get amazed when they catch a chain I toss
amidst (?) different ways I talk
and it hangs from your brain if my chain you caught
like I cough without covering my mouth
I tip the scales like the King of the south
forgot that I was fat I lost my way
but now I’m back looking for the shade I (?)
and not wonders, the sky summers
so don’t make me take off my stunners
Bobby Ray you know you got my numbers
and them there can’t see us like hunters
[Chorus]
La la la la la
oh yeah
La la la la la
you can’t see past my shades
La la la la la
you can’t see past my shades
Welcome to Atlanta where the big boys roam
Coming live from the dome gotta be a bees home
Dream baded to a, and let them coming off a bowie
Practicing in a new hobby and the eagles
And the city of brother they love, now they looking up
Birds of prey hovering above
Packers again, hunting the big bird, how will ever stand ?
How or maybe Aj hawk can be the falcon
But Maddy ice is ready to rip it out of his
Riders will probably .. a few cd's
I met ...planning on fire through his
Michael Turner is likely to earn him a couple of jaws
But the packers a whole new encore
And meanwhile the dirty bird ridey, got his winning wings on, he's about to take flight
But accordingly to charts that will never happen
Battling for 13 years and still in fashion
I like where the black is, it will be tough to beat
The one see, where the doesn't freeze
If you loose you're no longer remembered
cleaned out, we see you in September
Hold me a contender, and left in the chapter and the triple weights
It's a game of vengeance so we've even a little brain
Can be the difference between the losers and all the great tools really who's silly and who's fake
[Verse 1: B.o.B]
Do-Do-Do Hello Neighbors
Wake up now or say your prayers
Put it down your newspaper
Hello there bad news anchor
We don't want no more favors
We ain't goin die We ain't goin lay low
To the sky is what we aim for
From Venus to Mars
From Venus to Mars
[Chorus x2: B.o.B]
The ticking clock The tick clock
Is counting down counting down
Like 5... 4... 3... 2... 1...
Your out of time out of time
[Verse 2: B.o.B]
Like a Tornado This world is goin' round
There's nothing to wait for
Don't let it weigh you down... down... down... down...
I need to release
Release all these demons
Screaming at me
They must be defeated
Eventually some time this century
Please pardon me cause me I'm just ventin'
But people will bleed if we don't come to grips with
These evil seas that we playin with big business
They never solve it defenseless
And still we so senseless
[Chorus x2: B.o.B]
The ticking clock The tick clock
Is counting down counting down
Like 5... 4... 3... 2... 1...
Your out of time out of time
Like a Tornado This world is goin' round
There's nothin' to wait for
Don't let it weigh you down
Like a Tornado! This world is goin' round
There's nothin' to wait for
Don't let it weigh you
Out of my, Out of my, mind
Out of my, Out of my, mind
Ah, ah
Out of my, Out of my, mind
Out of my
Out of my m-m-mind
Out of my
Out of my, Out of my, mind
Out of my, Out of my, mind
[Nicki Minaj]
What's your name... so they calling you Bob
[Intro]
Terry urban. the commissioner. one two.
[Verse one]
Well I’m a wiz with my verbiage and speech
The only thing that I give is the words on this beats
And it’s easy to see that I encourage the streets
So uh, a leader is what I must certainly be
Eastside
I’m in the game permanently
They say they calm but they really lookin’ worried at me
Man I’ma be up in this bitch till they bury the b
The o the b and all the periods in between
Man I do this shit here for the city I’m from
And I’m ’bout to change what y’all consider the slums
Plus by thus far I’m as real as they come
So if you wanna stop me best pick up a gun
Bust something
[Chorus]
Well all that I’ve have got to give
Is these words I say
And when the timin’ is right
I promise you, you’ll understand one day
How how how how how how how how how
Ohhh one day
How how how how how how how how how
One me, one day
So all that I have got to give
Is these words I say
And when the timin’ is right
I promise you, you’ll understand one day
How how how how how how how how how
Ohhh one day
How how how how how how how how how
One day
[Verse two]
Haha, pleeeeease don’t hate
You know I’m nice
Comin’ through your screen like I’m poltergeist
The flow is somethin’ like snow in october right?
So when I hold the mic bitch, I’m dolomite
Huh, but y’all doin’ nothin’
Me? I’m up in the sky, I’m abductin’
Y’all earthlings with my super duper button
I got a space ray, fuck what y’all bustin’
But man, I’m really just advanced
I’m not a human, I got antennas that are hands
And I got government transmitters in my head
So I’m paranoid I got bullets in my bed
Right next to the fullies, so I’m fully gettin’ dressed
In the mornin’ with girlfriend, busy cookin’ breakfast
[Chorus]
Well all that I’ve have got to give
Is these words I say
And when the timin’ is right
I promise you, you’ll understand one day
How how how how how how how how how
Ohhh one day
How how how how how how how how how
One me, one day
So all that I have got to give
Is these words I say
And when the timin’ is right
I promise you, you’ll understand one day
How how how how how how how how how
Ohhh one day
How how how how how how how how how
[Chorus: B.O.B.]
I used to dream (I used to dream) oh whoa
About the money and the cars and girls (and the girls)
But now I sing (now I sing) oh whoa
Because I'm sitting on top of the world (the whole world)
And now I sing sing sing sing cause I'm sitting on top of the world
And now I sing sing sing sing sitting on top of the world
[Verse 1: T.I.]
Man I remember before I say that wait let me issue this statement
No way should reflection be mistaking for glorification
Now I remember so vivid me and my niggas was living
Sub-standard condition still handling business
Still laughing and tripping still having the bitches
I'm rapping now reminiscing and god damn it we did it
From trapping standing and pitching with rich we stand in the kitchen
Splitting it eight ways flip it in 8 days
Thought that wildin unruly it was just the way to behave
Kept the weight and the yay for most the paper we made in all dimes
I ain't lying the pleasure was all mine
Have big work to move but we served the small time
I always outshined the niggas with small minds
Who would of thought we would be arguably the greatest of all time
Around here we developed such a sound down here
But duplicate it off the steel it can only be found here
Only listen to G's that other shit I don't hear
Shit they so far in the rear how would I even care
I'm too busy being a player staring at niggas careers
But talk about it for years and now we finally here
[Chorus:]
I used to dream (I used to dream) oh whoa
About the money and the cars and girls (and the girls)
But now I sing (now I sing) oh whoa
Because I'm sitting on top of the world (the whole world)
And now I sing sing sing sing cause I'm sitting on top of the world
And now I sing sing sing sing sitting on top of the world
[Verse 2: Ludacris]
They say what goes up must come down but I ain't reached my cruising altitude
Take a look at what I did but can you imagine what I'm about to do
The places I'm bout to go and the money I'm bout to see
Gave bill gates some binoculars and said look out for me
Exceeded expectations even at def jam
Cause I married the streets and Atlanta has been my best man
My momma quit her job and now she works with six figures
Cause I'm a self-made nappy-headed rich nigga
Private planes help me travel in peace
To four cities in one day and four countries in one week
Cause I work for myself and no one else cause I'm too smart too
Put one of my partners right through culinary art school
Now he my personal chef so that bread he get it
Put them all in houses cleaned up all of my friends credit
And now they witness all the glitz and the glamor
Catch us eating at straits Atlanta with women with table manners
Order in Singapore and lobster
Celebrating coming from nothing to winning grammys and rappers winning oscars
And they say rappers shouldn't act nahh suckers
We see Samuel L.Jackson like what's up mother fucker
[Chorus:]
I used to dream (I used to dream) oh whoa
About the money and the cars and girls (and the girls)
But now I sing (now I sing) oh whoa
Because I'm sitting on top of the world (the whole world)
And now I sing sing sing sing cause I'm sitting on top of the world
And now I sing sing sing sing sitting on top of the world
[Verse 3: T.I.]
I know them haters don't stop plotting and wish you would fall
Cause I'm standing on top looking down at it all
I see you down there to ya'll this ain't like I got it all
Homie I ain't get enough I'm still trying to triple up
That's why we got is street cred and akoo building up
Say I'm doing too much shit I say I ain't did enough
Remember saying damn if I could just get to a million plus
And now I'm like shit what the fuck is a million bucks
Triple that on my bond thanks to bigs and run
But never mind what I've been through just look at what I become
All the shit I've avoided what I done for my sons
And daughters and momma just call her
I sold dope and dropped out of school seems it's all they can see
They don't notice none of my family did that since me
I broke that cycle now my family live a life of
Mandatory minimals but not when the judge sentence them
Cousins in college where you think they get tuition from
Just for standing around wishing huh
And while you standing around looking dumb
I make it happen taking action over time got damn good at it
[Chorus:]
I used to dream (I used to dream) oh whoa
About the money and the cars and girls (and the girls)
But now I sing (now I sing) oh whoa
Because I'm sitting on top of the world (the whole world)
And now I sing sing sing sing cause I'm sitting on top of the world
This is the finish my friend, this is the end
It's a revolution... live in revenge
There's no need to move or adjust your television
Whenever an era dies, another era begins
These American fights, these American wars,
These American stripes, these American stars
But these American cages have American bars
We hunted for truth so we headed for y'all
Towers are crumbling, bridges are falling
Limits are fading, the normal is boring
Looking at time move progressively forward
Looking the days just vanish before me
You wanted a Benz but you couldn't afford it
Now you were killed to put your foot in the tourist
It's a... of madness and never look backwards
But this is the crisis, prepare for disaster
Start spreading the news
I'm leaving today
I want to be a part of it
New York New York
New York
Breaker breaker 9 breaker breaker 1 9
Could you please get a operator on the phone line
This is not a riot it's way much more than that
These people are dying we are under attack
Wait let me call you back, let me get my stack
Cause we ain't taking shit so therefore we'll fight them back
We ain't waiting on the line for a 9 1 1 9 9
Whatever man I ain't got time for all this nonsense
Enemy responses ain't a dial tone in our home on the continent
Got me in these bandages...
Man I swear they sleeping, they unconscious or they slumbering
So we break the peace to get a piece of what we wanted
Act like we new to this...
Let them know we run this shit
And let them know just how you feel the way your country is
Now look how beautiful destruction is
Bang
Start spreading the news
I'm leaving today
I want to be a part of it
New York New York
[Chorus - Bruno Mars]
Beautiful girls all over the world, I could be chasing
But my time would be wasted, they got nothing on you, baby
Nothing on you, baby
They might say hi, and I might say hey
But you shouldn't worry, about what they say
Because they got nothing on you, baby
Nothing on you, baby
[Verse 1- B.o.B]
I know you feel where I'm coming from
Regardless of the things in my past that I've done
Most of it really was for the hell of the fun
On a carousel, so around I spun
With no direction, just trying to get some
Trying to chase skirts, living in the summer sun
And so I lost more than I had ever won
And honestly, I ended up with none
[Bridge - B.o.B]
It's so much nonsense, it's on my conscience
I'm thinking "maybe I should get it out"
And I don't want to sound redundant
But I was wondering, if there was something that you want to know
But never mind that, we should let it go
Because we don't want to be a TV episode
And all the bad thoughts just let them go, go, go, go, go
[Chorus]
[Verse 2 - B.o.B]
Hands down, there will never be another one (Nope)
I've been around, and I've never seen another one (Never)
Because your style, I ain't really got nothing on (Nothing)
And you wild when you ain't got nothing on? (Ha-ha)
Baby you the whole package
Plus you pay your taxes
And you keep it real, while them others stay plastic
You're my Wonder Woman, call me Mr. Fantastic
Stop, now think about it
[Bridge 2 - B.o.B]
I've been to London, I've been to Paris
Even way out there in Tokyo
Back home down in Georgia, to New Orleans
But you always steal the show
And just like that, girl you got me froze
Like a Nintendo 64
If you never knew, well, now you know, know, know
[Chorus]
[Bridge 3- B.o.B]
Everywhere I go, I'm always hearing your name
And no matter where I'm at, girl you make me want to sing
Whether a bus or a plane, or a car, or a train
No other girls on my brain, and you're the one to blame
[Chorus]
[Outro - B.o.B]
Yeah
[Chorus: B.o.B]
Just because I'm losing doesn't mean I'm lost
They gave me nothing but doubt
First they waited then hated then counted me out
Just because I'm losing doesn't mean I'm stuck
They say I lost my way
But first I showed em then I sold em right in front of their face
[Verse 1: B.o.B]
Well this is the World that we living
One minute you the hero the next you the villain
We got up in this game just to try to make a living
We hit you with the truth while you watching television
But still these are the cards that we dealt
They kick you on the ground when you most need help
Until you dried up and they sit you on the shelf
Then you start to cry because you all by yourself
So just know if you are aware of the belt
The only way to excel is the soul that you sell
So I could care less about the clothes on myself
I'm trying to drive straight on a road made of nails
Yeah, I got to pay the toll if I fell
Or else it would be another story to tell
I'm getting to the door I can tell
I'm just waiting on the day till the glory prevails
[Chorus]
[Verse 2: T.I.]
All I know is keep going, shit don't stop
Until the huss double up put the click on top
Used to wanna have the bricks on lock
Til we went to prison saw we couldn't pick them locks
Easy decision now a nigga think I lost my touch
Listen if I ain't the realest ever done it I ain't off by much
So please don't wake me up if I'm dreaming in the fast lane speedin' no safety belt
And it's a marathon pace yourself
In this race for wealth talkin' shit just a waste of breath
Chasing me like chasing your tail your never gon catch it
Respect is something you never get if you never had it
I'm looking back and laughing this life of mine
Bought me all the way here form my life of crime
Just a constant reminder that the end I'll be always the one who knows all see's all
Because...
[Chorus]
[Verse 3: B.o.B]
Yeah, well these are my predictions
I'll be on the top 40 with a big hit
Travelling the World trying not to get sick
And I'm a get more friends on my friends on my friends list
And then after that I'll be famous
And everyone I know will tell me that I'm changing
And then my cell phone will never stop ringing
And I'll be all over magazine pages
Yeah and they'll play my songs till they boring
And if I ever do stop touring they treat me like a foreigner
Don't believe me ask Lauren...
Well, i live in a no mans land. I dont know where im going, trying to gain a fan.
I hold on to whatever i can, cuz the deeper i go, the quicker the sand.
Well, i live in a no mans land. I dont know where im going, trying to gain a fan.
I hold on to whatever i can, cuz the deeper i go, the quicker the sand.
Yeah, and everything
It all comes crashing down
And every deed
It all comes back around
And every creek
And every single cloud
Becomes the sea
And it all comes crashing down
And in the midst of everything i drown
As the sky above comes crashing down
(down down down)
And in the midst of everything i drown (drown drown)
As the sky above comes crashing down
Sweet dreams, i hold on to
Memories, i hold on to
I dont think they really, really understand
All the pain i feel, just to make them dance
And here i go, in the studio
Can you feel my heart, now can you feel my soul
Thats the way that i, think with every line
and imma be that deep till the day i die
So if you feel me now, sing it one time
The doc said i need to take theese every day
But i rather ride around in a chevrolet
I dont wanna pray i dont wanna meditate
I broke up with my girlfriend yesterday
If i wanted to i could do anything
I could rap a verse but i'd rather sing
Everything goes around like a boomerang
(boomerang-rang-rang-boomerang-rang-rang -rang)
Yeah, and everything
It all comes crashing down
And every deed
It all comes back around
And every creek
And every single cloud
Becomes the sea
And it all comes crashing down
And in the midst of everything i drown
As the sky above comes crashing down
(down down down down down)
And in the midst of everything i drown (drown drown)
As the sky above comes crashing down
I try to hold on, on to everything
Sweet memories, but that was yesterday
I try to hold on, on to everything
Sweet memories, but that was yesterday
I try to hold on, on to everything
Sweet memories, but that was yesterday
I try to hold on, on to everything
Sweet memories, but that was yesterday
I try to hold on, on to everything
(sweet dreams, i hold on to-o-o-o)
Sweet memories, but that was yesterday
(Memories, i hold on to-o-o-o)
I try to hold on, on to everything
(sweet dreams, i hold on to-o-o-o)
Sweet memories, but that was yesterday
(Memories, i hold on to-o-o-o)
Featuring: Hayley Williams
Can we pretend that airplanes
In the night sky are like shooting stars?
I could really use a wish right now
Wish right now, wish right now
Can we pretend that airplanes
In the night sky are like shooting stars?
I could really use a wish right now
Wish right now, wish right now
Yeah, I could use a dream or a genie or a wish
To go back to a place much simpler than this
'Cause after all the partyin' and smashin' and crashin'
And all the glitz and the glam and the fashion
And all the pandemonium and all the madness
There comes a time where you fade to the blackness
And when you starin' at that phone in your lap
And you hopin' but them people never call you back
But that's just how the story unfolds
You get another hand soon after you fold
And when your plans unravel in the sand
What would you wish for if you had one chance
So airplane, airplane, sorry I'm late
I'm on my way so don't close that gate
If I don't make that then I'll switch my flight
And I'll be right back at it by the end of the night
Can we pretend that airplanes
In the night sky are like shooting stars?
I could really use a wish right now
Wish right now, wish right now
Can we pretend that airplanes
In the night sky are like shooting stars?
I could really use a wish right now
Wish right now, wish right now
Yeah, somebody take me back to the days
Before this was a job, before I got paid
Before it ever mattered what I had in my bank
Yeah, back when I was tryin' to get a tip at subway
And back when I was rappin' for the hell of it
But nowadays we rappin' to stay relevant
I'm guessin' that if we can make some wishes out of airplanes
Then maybe, oh, maybe I'll go back to the days
Before the politics that we call the rap game
And back when ain't nobody listened to my mix tape
And back before I tried to cover up my slang
But this is for Decatur, what's up, Bobby Ray
So can I get a wish to end the politics?
And get back to the music that started this shit
So here I stand, and then again I sink
I'm hopin' we can make some wishes out of airplanes
Can we pretend that airplanes
In the night sky are like shooting stars?
I could really use a wish right now
Wish right now, wish right now
Can we pretend that airplanes
In the night sky are like shooting stars?
I could really use a wish right now
Wish right now, wish right now
I could really use a wish right now
I could really use a wish right now
Like, like, like shooting stars
I could really use a wish right now
Yeah, yeh, uhm, hey, I eat it like dinner
You see this shit I gotta deal with from these beginners?
I ain't circusin' around with these clown ass n-ggas
You snappin' at the heels of a world class sprinter
Some may call this bullyin', some may call this bossin'
Check the letter, man, you know I'm all city varsity
Walk up on my field, you will get carried off it
We gon' need a body bag and we gon' need a coffin
Who am I battling? I ain't even exhausted
You can call me sick, you can even call me nauseous
A sea of great whites, you are a dolphin
If I was you, I would be a little more cautious
I'm way too high for you to look at
The future ain't lookin' promising for these rookies
This is target practice but I don't even pull the f-cking trigger anymore
Cause it's just a waste of bullets
Come and get these p-ssy's, wipe them off the floor
I'm guessing they was hoping for some different results
I'm guessing they was guessing cause they wasn't really sure
But f-ck it, I guess I'ma have to let these n-ggas know
So I think it's time for these haters to get off my dick
Got my own city, you can call it Bobtropolis
Eastside representer, reppin' with authority
And I ain't talking congressmen and I ain't talking politics
Lookin' for freaks, freaks lookin' for sausages
But we already know that, so that is all to get
Check the name tag, you know who the roster is
ATL brand, Hustle H.A.M squad in this bitch
Like I ain't never had a mic
Fresh to death, I see you in the afterlife
I eat bars, eat beasts for my appetite
You wouldn't know about that, you never had a bite
What I gotta do to get some solidarity?
Apparently, I need to speak with some more clarity
No luck needed, know no charity
And I'mma grown man, don't need p-ssy to take care of me
B to the O, I said it once befo'
If I ain't on your channel, go and look for the remote
Already graduated, yeah, you see the cap n robe
But now you couldn't see me 'less you had a telescope
I'm Bedrock bumpin', three strikes sumpin
Call me Jack o' Lantern, I get head like pumpkins
It's nothin', roll up the stuffin'
Put it in the oven, gettin baked like muffins
If you ain't know, I guess I have to introduce ya
To my side of town, somethin' you ain't really used to
Body blow, uppercut, I do more than brusin'
They can take these clothes off my back
They can take my money
Don't care about that
They can't take my words
It's all I've got
They can have this fame
It ain't worth a lie
[Chorus:]
Baby (Oh yea)
Oh, Baby
My Sweet Baby... You're the one [x2]
Uh huh... I kno
[Verse 1:]
Well it's Mr. Obituary, put beats in a cemetery
I rip the beat ta pieces, like sheets in a dictionary
The teachers try tried ta teach me but I was sleepin in every class
I never passed
It didn't seem necessary
I'm super psychedelic
I'm smokin weed whit the fairies
And if drugs are bad, throw away every CD you carry
Cause' drugs have inspired every musical visionary
And this ain't even the album
So the thought alone should be scary
I do this for the geeks who feel they need ta compare me
I swear I'll push dhis button, give me a reason or dare me
And everything gets blown and everybody gets buried
And there you have it, I shot the track like Berry
[Chorus]
[Verse 2:]
I kno, I kno, I kno
They tryna figure out, what's my business incentives
I'm simply tryna speak to who or whatever will listen
And reach out to the kids who the doctor prescribed whit Riddlin
So this for all'a ma aliens and all'a the indigo children
And anyone who said I would never see this position
Allow me to drop my pants and turn around for you ta kiss it
But that was the motivation I needed for me ta get it
And this has been a Bobby Ray powerpoint presentition
I mean... presentation...
Dis motha fucka on?... Okay
I think I wanna tell ya'll a little story
[Verse 1: B.o.B]
About a young boy, a very young boy,
Always playing games but never had a toy.
Making A's in school? Pshhh He couldn't do it
A crazy motha fucka yes everybody knew it
Long story short that nigga was me, that nigga is b,
Destined to be, a failure but I still made it out hell yeah.
I was stubborn could nobody tell me nothin'.
Walk around smokin' like I live in Amsterdam,
Middle finger to the sky like I don't give a god damn.
But rebellion is just a side effect, homicidal maybe, suicidal yes!
[Talking: B.o.B]
Boy I tell ya niggas be like why in the hell you so quiet nigga you sick?
Haha Hell yeah I'm sick nigga look at me! You can't tell?
What you think is even goin with my head? I don't even know I need got to tell me.
Anyways let's get back to the story enough of this shit talkin damn...
[Verse 2: B.o.B]
My daddy from the Barn and my momma from the Gutta,
So I guess that makes me a country motha fucka.
Anyways in school, your boy was a huslta
I had everything on deck to get that butta.
But I was headed down the wrong path,
Smokin weed sellin weed failin out of class.
But now it's like fuck what the po think I'm a let the dro stank
But I ain't for crack ya'll can have dat.
But on top of that I thought I got a bitch pregnant,
For 7 damn months I thought she was expectin'
Then I found out it wasn't mine, but that was only half the issues off my mind.
[Talking: B.o.B]
And today my parents were tellin' me
You need to go to college and you need to do this
And I was like no sir I'm straight on it I ain't trying to spend
40 thousand to be 50 thousand in debt when I graduate.
And a scholarship? what the fuck is a scholarship?
My G.P.A started with a damn decimal you know what I'm sayin? but anyways... let's go.
[Verse 3: B.o.B]
Back to the side of dealing with these problems,
I am back to graduate but I ain't fittin' to go to college.
So I gotta figure out how I'm a make some dollas
But I ain't in the streets so I gotta slang beats
Then I sold my first beat got a couple stacks
And just like a nigga man I spent it like that
Got a couple diamonds got a couple hats and
Filled up my closet with some shoes and some slacks
[Talking: B.o.B]
Now I am back to square one where I'm at now
Rappin in this booth in a basement of a house.
Being a honest man I'm just trying to make it out.

Ladies and gentlemen you are on Cloud 9 Airways. Please buckle your seatbelts and stay seated. Our departure will be around 4:20. Clear skies, sunny days. We are ready for takeoff. We have a go.
Wasn't much to do, I dipped outta school
Had to play it cool, I lit up that blue
And then I flew away, in the middle of the day
Man I gotta leave, I gotta escape
I can't stick around, gotta fly away
In the middle of the day, in the middle of the day
Look
Brain's at my window pane, it feels like I'm livin in a video game
But ain't nothing changed, cause it's the middle of the day
Look
I said I'm puffin with my kin folk, gone off that endo
Just doin that same old thing, with the same old gang
So can't nothin change
Look
Every day the time goes by, passin me by
Paranoia on my mind, but I don't know why
Somethin bout the times when I'm at the bank standin in line
Don't say much, keep a straight face
If I say somethin I'm crazy
I think the government's onto me, onto me
Wasn't much to do, I dipped outta school
Had to play it cool, I lit up that blue
And then I flew away, in the middle of the day
Man I gotta leave, I gotta escape
I can't stick around, gotta fly away
In the middle of the day, in the middle of the day
Well I done sacrificed a lot
Just to get this rappin life to pop
Meditatin on that after life
And if a tragic happens then I pass my life to stop
Cause a brand new life's beginning
But I ain't intending for it to be tremendous like this
The old one I had is ending, so so long I'm finished
Face to the floor getting so frustrated
Tryin to figure out the right words to say
It's me and the clock I feel like I'm racin
Nobody knows the trouble I'm facin
Man I'm sick of waitin, gettin impatient
Watchin my life unfold the pages
Ain't nothin much I can do to stop it
That's why I'm blazin
Every day the time goes by, passin me by
Paranoia on my mind, but I don't know why
Somethin bout the times when I'm at the bank standin in line
Don't say much, keep a straight face
If I say somethin I'm crazy
I think the government's onto me, onto me
Wasn't much to do, I dipped outta school
Had to play it cool, I lit up that blue
And then I flew away, in the middle of the day
Man I gotta leave, I gotta escape
I can't stick around, gotta fly away
In the middle of the day, in the middle of the day

I'll need a volunteer
How about you, with the eyes?
Come on down to the front
And stand right here and don't be shy
I'll have you time-travellin'
Have your mind babblin'
People tryin' to inherit the skill
So they askin' me
Even David Blaine had to go
And take some classes
And I see Mindfreak like
What's up man, what's happenin'?
So come one, come all
And see the show tonight
Prepare to be astounded
No Ghost or Poltergeist
You know I'm no Pinocchio
I've never told a lie
So call me Mr. Magic Man

Well, take a journey into my mind
You'll see why it's venom I rhyme
Stay on the road
So I call my mama when I got time
I hit the stage, go insane
Then jump into that crowd
See, see, when I rhyme
I flow on the beat like pidda-dow-dow
See I deceive you with my
Intergalactic ether
I sing just like Aretha
So respect me like I'm Caesar
I kick it like Adidas
Flowin' sticky like adhesive
Be cautious, 'cause what I be on
Will leave you with amnesia
I break all the rules
Like Evel Knievel
It's a spectacular show
'Cause my heart pumps diesel
So whatever you saying
It don't entertain my ego
I do this everyday
Hocus pocus is my styl-o

Turns into gold

I know I'm left field to ya
Field to ya, field to ya
But don't it sound so
Real-to-ya, real-to-ya, real-to-ya
Tell me how it
Feel-to-you, feel-to-you, feel-to-you
Now don't it feel lovely? [x2]
Now don't it sound lovely? [x2]
I agree
I'm playing out the left
Was raised in the dekatour
So I'm straight out the deck
And G.A. is all I rep
And so they say that I'm obsessed
I grew up in the struggle so
Maybe I'm depressed
But being in the struggle is what
Gave me my success
They say your imagination
I ain't fakin it unless
I don't mean what I say
But what I say is what I stress
And I ain't really catholic but
Daily I confess
I ain't a Christian rapper or a civil activist
But everybody feel me because I say the realist shit
I see why haters get all mad I don't brag
So here is what I got to offer
Words of wisdom so that you can get your money altered
I know I'm that
Feel-to-ya, Feel-to-ya, Feel-to-ya
But don't it sound so
Real-to-ya, real-to-ya, real-to-ya
Tell me how it
Feel-to-you, feel-to-you, feel-to-you
Now don't it feel lovely? [x2]
Now don't it sound lovely? [x2]
Ah ha
I'm lovely like the left field
I know I ain't around shorty I rep still
Don't get to thinkin that I'm different
Because of the record deal
Turn hollywood, c'mon is that real?
And still I got alot of agony
And stress on my chest
Cause the world ain't right
So I gotta come left
I'm a keep it one [? ] to the day that I rest
So take a deep breath, I guess.
I know I'm that
Feel-to-ya, Feel-to-ya, Feel-to-ya
But don't it sound so
Real-to-ya, real-to-ya, real-to-ya (ah huh)
Tell me how it
Feel-to-you, feel-to-you, feel-to-you
Now don't it feel lovely? [x2]
(Chorus)
Looking at the world from my rearview,
Searching for an answer up high,
Or is it all wasted time.
Everything is crumbling around me,
Feels like the ending of the times,
Or is it all just a sign.
(Verse 1 - B.o.B)
Uh, I don't start from my notebook,
Ever since, never woke up.
Hey, I've been travelling for lifetimes,
Still I got many miles 'fore it's over.
Yeah, I kept on hunting like I'm spose to,
But everything in the world ain't coshure,
See it's crazy when your friends turn to strangers,
But then strangers running up like they know you,
And the further away from? there I go.
I can feel the truth getting closer.
But hey, it's a path that we all on,
If your in the fast lane or the slow one.
And you might break down on the shoulder,
You just gotta know who the car for the toe-truck.
I guess we all gotta exit to the next boulevard where the roads are.
(Chorus)
Looking at the world from my rearview,
Searching for an answer up high,
Or is it all wasted time.
Simulated automated break throughs,
Everything appears to be fine,
Or are we all digitised.
Everything is crumbling around me,
Feels like the ending of the times,
Or is it all just a sign.
(Verse 2 - Playboy Tre)
[Talking] Yeah, sometimes, sometimes I'm wondering if what I'm seeing
Infront of me, is even real.
Yeah, go role up some of that killa,
We call this slasher smoking,
Gone off those Michael Myers,
I can barely keep my lashes open.
6 shots of the rum I'm done,
Thinking about my partners death,
I'm angry, in a flash he was gone,
Man how can that day not rearrange me.
All of my days they clouded,
All of my nights they roudy,
He told me 'Tre keep suckers in the rib
If so then smash 'em proudly'.
Is it all in my head,
Am I just wasting time,
All of my rearview mirror,
Looking for answers 'bout to lose my mind.
(Chorus)
Looking at the world from my rearview,
Searching for an answer up high,
Or is it all wasted time.
Simulated automated break throughs,
Everything appears to be fine,
Or are we all digitised.
They say you only get one life time,
Then it's gone in a blink of an eye,
Or is it all just in my mind.
Everything is crumbling around me,
Feels like an ending of the times,
Or is it all just a sign.
(Verse 3 - B.o.B)
I saw a light stancing up so high,
I wonder is it really a sign,
But just imagination, imagination.
A scoulded rivers flooded out the sky,
Pouring from the sands of time,
Congratulations, we finally made it.
[X2]
Chorus)
Looking at the world from my rearview,
Searching for an answer up high,
Or is it all wasted time.
Simulated automated break throughs,
Everything appears to be fine,
Or are we all digitised.
They say you only get one life time,
Then it's gone in a blink of an eye,
Or is it all just in my mind.
Everything is crumbling around me,
Feels like an ending of the times,
Looking for a kitten to purr for me
Pouring her love all over me
But I found my love cracking her whip
Hooked on me and another trip
It was you
Yeah, it was you
It was you
2 a.m now I'm wide awake
Gonna be a trip I should never take
I knew the rules, now I gotta pay
Cause I found love in a dirty way
It was you
Yeah, it was you
It was you
I knew the rules, now I gotta pay
Cause I found love in a dirty way
It was you
Yeah, it was you
(feat TI)
[Chorus - B.o.B]
Just because Im losing doesnt mean Im lost
They gave me nothing but doubt
first they waited then hated then they counted me out
Just because Im losing doesnt mean Im stuck
They say I lost my way
but first I showed em then I sold em right in front of their face
[Verse 1 - B.o.B]
Well this is the World that we living
one minute you the hero the next you the villain
we got up in this game just to try to make a living
we hit you with the truth while you watching television
but still these are the cards that we dealt
they kick you on the ground when you most need help
until you dried up and they sit you on the shelf
then you start to cry because you all by yourself
so just know if you are aware of the belt
the only way to excel is the soul that you sell
so I could care less about the clothes on myself
Im trying to drive straight on a road made of nails
yeah, I got to pay the toll if I fell
or else it would be another story to tell
Im getting to the door I can tell
Im just waiting on the day till the glory prevails
[Chorus B.o.B]
Just because Im losing doesnt mean Im lost
They gave me nothing but doubt
first they waited then hated then they counted me out
Just because Im losing doesnt mean Im stuck
They say I lost my way
but first I showed em then I sold em right in front of their face
[Verse 2 - T.I.]
All I know is keep going, sh-t dont stop
until the huss double up put the click on top
used to wanna have the bricks on lock
til we went to prison saw we couldnt pick them locks
easy decision now a n-gga think I lost my touch
listen if I aint the realest ever done it I aint off by much
so please dont wake me up if Im dreaming in the fast lane speedin no safety belt
and its a marathon pace yourself
in this race for wealth talkin sh-t just a waste of breath
chasing me like chasing your tail your never gon catch it
respect is something you never get if you never had it
Im looking back and laughing this life of mine
bought me all the way here form my life of crime
just a constant reminder that the end Ill be always the one who knows all sees all
because
[Chorus B.o.B]
Just because Im losing doesnt mean Im lost
They gave me nothing but doubt
first they waited then hated then they counted me out
Just because Im losing doesnt mean Im stuck
They say I lost my way
but first I showed em then I sold em right in front of their face
[Verse 3 - B.o.B]
Yeah, well these are my predictions
Ill be on the top 40 with a big hit
travelling the World trying not to get sick
and Ima get more friends on my friends on my friends list
and then after that Ill be famous
and everyone I know will tell me that Im changing
and then my cell phone will never stop ringing
and Ill be all over magazine pages
yeah and theyll play my songs till they boring
and if I ever do stop touring they treat me like a foreigner
Dont believe me ask Lauren
[Chorus B.o.B]
Just because Im losing doesnt mean Im lost
They gave me nothing but doubt
first they waited then hated then they counted me out
Just because Im losing doesnt mean Im stuck
They say I lost my way
but first I showed em then I sold em right in front of their face
[Asher Roth:]
My aura takes the form of the aurora borealis
Or a floral pattern, more or less a forest to your salad
The neural path I've traveled has immediate reaction
Can't you see that I am beaming? I'll be leaving in a second
Sipping magic from a chalice, detached from the distractions
At last, I can relax, looking past all of the action
A fraction or a fragment of me actually is present
The rest of me is heavenly, the seventh house's zenith
Yes, the fence intimidates, it's meant to keep you out (But)
Let your senses resonate and leap it in a bound ('Cause)
Freedom isn't found inside a visa or a crown
And even the voice of reason couldn't speak it out loud (But)
Mortals are immortal when their soul has been imported
To a source that is more sovereign, important to the whole (Whole)
This is the warmest moment of a poet turned heroic
As he slowly comes to focus, go ahead and watch me glow
[Charles Hamilton:]
Rey Mysterio flow, stayin' clear
Of makeup-smeared hatin' queers, makin' clear this is spiritual
Though a spirit you owe, church final
Your funeral in an arena, you searchin' for fire
Or titles, or tidal waves
Tie the game like a shot from outside when it's 95 to 98
To throw slid into you left-side broke (Niggas!) (Beam!)
Boa constrictor, chokin' (Niggas!), the grown man (Beam!)
Pawns mean, your controllers get broken (Nigga!) (Beam!)
Anarchy in the Ford, you need to focus (Nigga!) (Beam!)
Love, I get none, like sayin' no to niggas
Hamiltonian's loneliness, so I hold my (Beams!) (Niggas!)
I logged on to see a c-section, a gross display
Sleep never, and Rolaids, deep lessons won't go away
I keep pressin' like my phone is afraid
To be the star, so I end it and pound it, see what the code can say
[Lupe Fiasco:]
Calling all the good rappers, had to get my crew together
Fire like the fire flower, flyer than the super feather
Superman with two propellers, enter that, ninja rap
You can call it Super Shredder, boss scene, Ross theme
You can call it super better, new to this, Ludacris
Foolishness, Lu been doin' this since super letters
So I can't spell and can't mail it out
If you can't feel, it's too full, you can't peel it out
Showboatin' at the show, but you can't sell it out
I'm on the sea shepherd deck, helpin' the whales out
All my egos in the mirror, checkin' themselves out
Tweeters in the trunk, helpin' the twelves out
The speakers on bump, the rappers on acne
This track is what would happen if the rastas meet the mathletes
Yes, sir, then the Chess Club got dressed up
And went and took all the bitches of the athletes
[Mikey Rocks:]
Big up to what's been up, nigga
Pin-ups from when we clicked up and posed for these pictures, good
And the kids connected up, and they clicked snap
Hollerin', "Yeah, we weighed on the iPhone scale app!"
Without fail, the best to ever do it just will
Haven't done it all, but we got copy wheelwell, though
But it ain't no sweat, I got a whole outfit
And a new fitted cap that I ain't wore out yet
(Check, check, check) And I'm beamin'
Yeah, and I seen it, like a twenty-seven inch Zenith
Projected widescreen, now they got it 3D
Now we NBA'd up from development leagues
[Chuck Inglish:]
Ay, yo, they pale in comparison to stories we tell
Man, he see me on the hovercraft and he got a sail
Bubble-ass Brenda, stacked up in the window
Of whatever 'Lac truck pick her up, retail
Nigga, what? It just hit me like a Mack truck semi
On my last trip to Sydney in the Sheraton lobby
Grab my coattails and get a grip (Grab 'em)
You want the truth? Well, the truth is
This is it, pointin' out the differences
This is exquisite shit, riveting, isn't it?
Lizard king loafers on swole when I'm kickin' it
Joe, the live nigga, real rig-a-marole
You a handshake away, and them fingers is cold
[Blu:]
Touch art, lush heart, brush my niggas' shoulder off
Now that blessed soldier know that protocol, show me y'all's
Maybe not, play me not, say we not remote at all
Roger that, scholars back, solid black, go God
Gobble Gats, go hard, condom snapped, so raw
Pompous asshole, flash flow, turn your soul on
So gone, strode strong through your lawn 'til the dawn
Tell you mom, name another real as John, kill a song
'Cause when you feel it, and it make yo' ass chill and calm
Payin' more than just attention for that glass I'm sippin' on
Dog, I would travel half the globe to kiss a broad
Kiddin', ma? Scratch backs, bringin' out them kitten paws
And pull a bottle out that cabinet while that kitchen's warm
Back to attendin' business, do not lay them digits wrong
Dippin' all gangsta, but a renegade, no Crip or John
This is Blu, shit is true, pyramid, period
[Diggy Simmons:]
I know what you're thinkin', thinkin' I do not belong
Tell me Diggy ain't beamin', 'course I should be on this song
Yeah, I'm a child of God, my reflection is on
Yeah, I'm only 15 and, but my sixteens is strong
Didn't want me to shine, now we sharin' the stage
Twice as good as you rhyme, only half of your age
So the remains, and it ain't even how
That Verizon flow, are you hearin' me now?
Word to Wasalu, they was sayin' my future was dark
I had the fame, but my name was missin' the art
So I'm drawin' the line, and I'm crossin' the Ts
And I'm dottin' my Is, barely catchin' my Zs
But I'll be good by the mornin', on my global grind like JoJo
They be lookin' at what I'm puttin' on and, so fly, so fresh at the SoHo
Most niggas don't know though, they can catch me on the first flight
Been workin' on a new mixtape, I got a call from Lupe
But I did it for the love, no check, mate
[Dosage:]
When people said I couldn't, I wouldn't, I made 'em believers
I come from the school of hard knocks and overachievers
From the City of Brotherly Love, they sayin' we need you
To be the voice of the people and go against all this evil
Some people hate it, but I made it, so I'm never concerned
About what they be talkin' about, I've lived and I've learned
With my dream and my drive, I determined my turn
In this business, because I'm in control, meetin' adjourned
I said, "It's Third Degree, y'all heard of we?
I'm Dosage, have you heard of me?"
I come from the bottom, so the top where I deserve to be
Where people say it doesn't matter to be much
I was on the Steppin' Lasers tour, and man, I shooked it up
That was random, but so what? Life is a war, better load up
If you against me, come correct, I am the bomb, watch me blow up (Boom!)
Right before your eyes, forget about the dividends
I just want to say I remember when
[B.o.B:]
Well, it's B to the O, O to the B
You know it's the flow, you know that it's me, I flow to this beat
As easy as goin' to the store and holdin' receipts
And foldin' 'em neat, I'm focused as focused can be
You know I got phobias, please, approach me with peace
Or things could get heated and you'll get ferociously beat
Speakin' of ferociously beat, you know that girl 'Nique?
You know she's a freak, but anyway, back to what I'm supposed to be
Sayin' all over this beat, you know that we Gs
You see all the crowns, you know that we kings, you notice the rings
Everywhere we go, we roll with the team, yeah
And you know that we lasers, so you know that we beam
It's the All City varsity, hard-headed squad
We played y'all spades, y'all handle y'all cards
But we ain't all odds, we just blaze, man
I'll be in the sky
I'll be there
Ooh all right
[x2]
I'll be in the sky
Yea yea yea
Yea yea yea
I'll be in the sky
[x2]
Remember when I leave,
That the one in the mirror ain't me,
It's just someone that I call B.O.B,
It's kinda me but it's not,
It's just a mask that I got,
So that I can rap and get off my block,
Reminiscin my past when I was a todler,
Sittin in grass and playin with blocks,
Failing my classes now I'm on lockdown,
Now writin and readin alot,
Money and weed is in my shoe box now,
While I'm tryina get me a glock,
Cause I thought I was at the end of my line,
Then I find out it was all in my mind,
That's why I'm here to end all the fear,
We all gon die and leave from here like
I was a man with no name,
Now I'm attributing mo fame,
But all of this ain't gonna matter when I a die and say good bye so long,
Sianara I'll have to catch you tomorra baby cause baby,
I'll be in the sky
I'll be there
Ooh all right
[x2]
I'll be in the sky
Yea yea yea
Yea yea yea
I'll be in the sky
[x2]
Everyone here gonna die one day,
So while I'm here I'm a find my way,
That's my forte,
That's why I'm here,
Shit to open up your ears,
And speak this real.
Beatin down the block with a shoot ya,
The gold teeth don't really match with the suit,
Nowerdays folk would rather rap than go to school,
Cause they feel that if they black then they gotta have it too,
But ya'll don't really seen that there,
After all everybody wanna kick back,
They wanna sit back,
They wanna sip Goose,
They wanna get down,
They wanna get loose,
They wanna get blown,
They wanna see the truth,
They wanna get old just like you,
But since they ain't nobody gon be responsable,
I'm a gonna have to be the one to show,
I was a man with no name,
Now I'm attributing mo fame,
But all of this ain't gonna matter when I a die and say good bye so long,
Sianara I'll have to catch you tomorra baby cause baby,
I'll be in the sky
I'll be there
Ooh all right
[x2]
I'll be in the sky
Yea yea yea
Yea yea yea
I'll be in the sky
[x2]
I'll be there
Ooh all right
I'll be there
I'll be there
Ooh all right
I'll be there
I'll be there
Ooh all right
I'll be there
I'll be there
Ooh all right
I see ya (I see ya)
I see ya (I see ya)
I see ya (I see ya)
I see ya (I see ya)
Yeah
It's B-O-B-Oh
No I don't need no lingo
Cause I'm on this mic I chicka-pow-pow chicka-pow-pow to the beat though
Yeah shoot it up like a free throw
Where?
From the west to the east coast
Like B.O in the peek-oh
Motherfuck like Danny DeVito
Lemme get a second just to reload
Cause I'm cool in the pocket like Tebow (yes!)
Cooler than the cheetahs on the Cheetos
Don't think that I lost my touch by much
I just been chillin' at the bank like aye!
Show me to the safe
Had to get my papers straight
Now I'm okay
Now it's back to the lab, yes back to the bank
So don't think that I ain't sick
That I'm in places you can't get
When you're inside of the matrix
High is my vibration
High as levitation
High like every race in
In this generation
I see ya (I see ya)
I see ya (I see ya)
I see ya (I see ya)
I see ya (I see ya)
'Cause I see ya (I see ya)
I see ya (I see ya)
I see ya (I see ya)
I see ya (I see ya)
Hold up, hold up, hold up
It's Bobby Ray
I mean my name B.o.B
When I'm on this mic I melt that fire
That's my job
I am a bomb
Try if ya want
Tick me off and I'm like lit up
So I would in the back
I'd sit in the back
Unless you got tricks, inside of a hat
Then I would eat
Still wouldn't defeat
The fact that I'm in singing this beat
I spit on the beat, I shit on the beat, then I wipe with an emcee
Throw them in the trash
B.o.B stop
Wait a minute maybe just switch up the flow
I was on a whole different level but now I'm ready to level
With a hell of fire venomous flow
Here's the thing
Clearly
I'm in a place you can't really be
I'm in a space
Called a zone
And when you inside you just kinda know
And you don't stop
'Cause you just float
And if you will then I know you don't
And if you not then you go for broke
But this a jungle let me go for those
I see ya
I see ya (I see ya)
I see ya (I see ya)
I see ya (I see ya)
I see ya (I see ya)
'Cause I see ya (I see ya)
I see ya (I see ya)

I see ya (I see ya)
Yeah yeah, yeah
Yeah yeah yeah yeah
Yeah yeah, yeah
Yeah yeah yeah yeah
Yeah yeah, yeah
Yeah yeah yeah yeah
Yeah yeah, yeah
Yeah yeah yeah yeah
I spit on the beat, I shit on the beat, then I wipe with an em
I spit on the beat, I shit on the beat, then I wipe
I spit on the beat, I shit on the beat, then I wipe
I spit on the beat, I shit on the beat, then I wipe with an emcee
With an emcee
With an emcee
With an emcee
With an em
With an em
Incredible, incredible
Oh my God, ladies and gentlemen
You have just witnessed world history being made
Bobby Simmons, takes it to the hole, dunks it
Overtime three seconds left, oh, my God, yeah

Okay, B.o.B, hit the stage now
Lights and cameras on
Yes, I'm givin' them want they want
But, no, I will not ever conform
'Cause I'm outside of the norm still
What a spectacular form
From the blood, sweat and the tears shed
Every time I perform
And whenever your doin' your thang
Yeah, people gon' hate on it as usual, that's right
But I'm just as human as you
I just look good while doin' it
And they telling me I have so much dough

Well, until then, I'm gonna continuin' numberin' because

I look in the mirror and laugh
Like look at what I've become
Everyone calls me B.o.B but
I'm still my mother's son
And I'm low key when I'm out now
Hell no fame ain't fun
But I stay live like NBA on yo play station
And I entertain 'cause I'm in the game
Man, it's easy to see I ain't into fame
'Cause I ain't
And critics say that I imitate but I really can't
Please allow me to demonstrate
But no matter what they say
I stay charged up like a triple A
Really, mayne? Really, mayne
I am the champion

[Verse 1:]
Everyone was saying hip-hop was dead
It wasn't dead
These niggas just wasn't makin no bread
Because the scared to be real so they fakin instead
And when that happens rappin and rappin it's actin instead
But like they say it's just entertainment
But it's a game so all this niggas is playin
Even me
But what happens when the game changes
Your favorite rappers gon have to do some explainin
Somebody turn the channel man this gangsta shit is boring
Nobody believes ya so please record another story
Now I'm not sayin that I'm a save ya
But if no one else keep it real then I'm the answer to ya prayers
[Chorus: x2]
Look into the future tell me what you see
You a fool if you don't know it by now
Pimpin we the future
We the future
And you a fool if you don't know it by now
[Verse 2:]
See kids only believe in what the perceive
And half of what they believe is what they be seein on the t.v.
Hints the term monkey see monkey do
That's why they got all the kids rockin bathing apes to school
Why you think they call em bathing apes
They think we just a bunch of babies and apes
I may be disturbed because I'm disgraced
I feel like an alien in outerspace
That's why I'm singin amazing grace to save this race
I do not know what it takes to make the dimension that I'm trying to create
We all got fucked we need to be hollerin great
But like they say it's just entertainment
But it's a game so all this niggas is playin
Even me
But what happens when the game changes
Your favorite rappers gon have to do some explainin
[Verse:]
Yeah
You may not know my name
But by the time I leave
You'll remember the B to the O to the B,
And every single dot that's in between
And every single time I hop up in the scene,
I'm feelin' like I'm better than before.
I'm ready for whatever, if you feel me let me know, cause I just wanna flow.
I got up in this thing tryna prove that I'm better than before,
But I don't even sweat it anymore.
I get up in the zone, then I coast,
As I take flight, gravity better hold me tight.
Your relativity don't mow me right.
Please don't compare n**gas to me cause I'm ham on the mic.
I'm down on the ground like a red pair of dice,
Just scared of the fight,
When you lay down and prepare for the night,
I'll be in the air on the flight.
I don't even care of the time,
High in the days of my mind.
Every single face that'll say "hey Bobby Ray" I'll say "Hi".
You're livin' the craziest life,
In a pair of shades and the spotlight raised,
Makin' every nightclub jump like raves
Raves, raves, Braves, Braves, home of the Braves,
Eastside Atlanta that's where I stay.
[Chorus:]
I'll take you higher, higher than you'll ever been
See things you've never thought, you thought would ever exist
Higher, higher than you'll ever been
Where we go we won't fall, we'll stay there
Cause there's a place with no wars, it's been ages since we've gone
Get away, so long
Yeah, It’s B.o.B.o.B.o.B
So high, what’s beneath me, I can’t even call it high
Like taking holders when the season started
It ain’t much to say when actions speak for themselves
So just the fact that I’m in this motherfucker means I’m balling
So next time you take shots keep an extra cartridge
Niggers handcuffing hoes like the police department
You think you flying but you really falling
You just ain’t hit the concrete yet nigger, you’re stalling
They say pop means being popular to the population
So excuse me for being the topic of your conversation
I just keep banging verses and rocking your mama’s braces
What you blazing a week, that’s what I start my day with
My checks worth more than your neck worth
I got a network about the size of the next earth
I’m laid up, so much head that my neck hurt
I’m living a dream, I never once with the bed first you dig
So what should I do with so much hate?
Fuck it, I turn crabs into bucket to a buffet
And beef to a … that’s a … entrée
And girl I turn that avocado into a …
So Spanish girls only, we can skip the foreplay
Roll up some good … and stay high for 4 days
We can do it 4 ways, left right, up down
My cup running over but I won’t put my cup down
You haters cheer leading while I’m out here running touch downs
But I won’t be ran down, I run shit, you run down
… blowing whistles like please get the sun down
Me I’m globetrotting from sun up to sun down
But still I’m straight…
No time to play cause I know they don’t …
But still I’m blaze, so many … don’t need no shades
Living that … life, I think my passport need no space
Haha, it’s B.o.B bitch …

So just the fact that I'm in this mother fucker means I'm balling
So next time you take shots, keep an extra cartridge
Niggas handcuffing hos like the police department (haha)
You think you're flying but you're really falling
You just ain't hit the concrete yet
Nigga you stalling
They say pop means being popular to the population
So excuse me for being the topic of your conversation
I just keep banging verses and rocking your mom's braces
What you blaze in a week, pshh, that's what I start my day with
My cheque's worth more than your neck worth
I got a network about the size of the next earth
I'm laid up
So much head that my neck hurt
I'm living the dream, I never once wet the bed first, ya dig?
So what should I do with so much hate? Well fuck it
I've turn crabs in a bucket to a buffet
And beef to a full-a
That's a full course entrée
And girl I turn that avocado to some guacamole
So Spanish girls olé
We can skip the foreplay
Roll up some good hays and stay high for four days
We can do it four ways
Left, right, up, down
My cup runneth over, but I won't put my cup down
You haters cheerleading while I'm out here running touchdowns
But I won't be rundown, I run shit, you run down
Thread it, blowing whistles like "Please get sun-down"
Meanwhile I'm globetrotting from sun-up to sun-down
But still I'm straight
Penthouse stuff, all kinds of specs
No time to play
cos I know they don't want me on top, anchovies
But still I'm blazed
So many trees, don't need no shade
Living that step life
I think my passport needs more space
Haha
Yeah
It's B, O, B, O, bitch
Haha
So long
Don't get mad when your girl come up to me in public like ("hi")
Hahaha

(ahaha)
But still man, you know how I do it
Grand Hustle in the building
yo, T.I.P coming home soon so you know its apolom
(hahaha)
Like mother nature's animal
I'm under the spell
It's just a more raw hit
For those who'll fly to hell
I'm a fighter, a lighter
A warpaint winner to the end
In broken whispering with flames
I seduce my brain
Somewhere between...
Heaven and hell
Minds collide between...
Heaven and hell
Worlds collide between...
Heaven and hell
Doom-shattered lady
I hear thy will
3 gets 4 and 10-tons
Roll down brain's hills
Try to break me, shake me
I survive, grey without a hideaway
Sadistic teaser
In a glorious blend
Somewhere between...
Heaven and hell
Minds collide between...
Heaven and hell
Worlds collide between...
[Chorus]
We got em goin down for the count
Lookin down at the ground
Thats why we got hataz

[Verse 1]

Real sharp on my thing like a razor

So guess I got a game of tape up
But errybody gotta feel the need to say summin
But can't speak up whenever you face em
Thats what I call microphone gangstas
Yea I got em over do'd[?]
Yea I'm raw you know my flow
Cuz b.o.b be actin hard like a Viagra overdose
Talkin that noise on all dem songs
A buncha lil boys and ya don't look grown

But it really don't matta cuz they all just clones
Gotta school, do the work, be a lawyer
Hell yeah I'm all for the cause
Don't wanna get involved with tha law sir
But a nigga still got the moss burgs
And that just fell on tha track and the song [?]
Don't get it wrong this track is my own
Cuz niggas that slip they don't last long
[Chorus]
[Verse 2 ]
Hey what it live, breath homie

Ooh, You shoulda seen when I came down in that
Black on Black
Gata hataz face down on the mat

Quick, fast, flash like tin cash on this bitch's tag
[Verse 3]
You can tell I'ma G from a walk in the stands
Don't care bout the game make em talk in the stands
Watch how you talk when you talk to the man
If it ain't about bread you can talk to da hand
I,I, Show you how to get rich
The game we on, I'll show you how to pitch
Made a play with a hit[?]
And told the police I don't know bout shit
Ay guy, I'm fly, summin like tha air

Homey hold it right there
Home boy hold it down

A reminder for those of you who forget

So the heart tell what they hate
So the heart tell I can feel this.
You take the trucks if you want to, number one and number two
I'll take the rest don't mind if I do
Blow my seed up to this table in this game where's my food?
Quite frankly I accomplished what they said I'll never do
Or maybe I'm a sleep it snoozing me before
Possible blocking me from opening doors
Everybody's surprised now... 3 years down the road
But where was everybody when I was... and exposed?

Babble beast, babble blast, babble's everything you say
... an expression in... my veins
Talking... labels corporations this is entertain

You won't the star in me, I can do anything
You won't see the heart in me cause shit becomes combustible
We'll squeeze into arteries, you haters, plus my uncle is Quincy Jones so pardon me
I like... to me, but my shit is...
When it comes to money boy we got that jig...
Looking bad is ever mentioned in the...
... we'll damage, whatever green... sublime
Get off the mike and threw that thing start...
... this is really history, watch your old lady for I sleep in with this...
Like Elmo you all tickle me, while I still be ripping bees

[Chorus: B.o.B]
My soul is getting weary, weary
And I know the ending is nearing, nearing tonight
So just say goodbye and kiss your dreams goodnight
So just say goodbye and kiss your dreams goodnight
[Verse 1: B.o.B.]
So just say goodnight to your dreams
Because tonight is the night of the beast
I am not frightened, I'm delighted to speak
When the time comes, until the night we will lead
That's why I decided to B. O. to the B
So, one time for the streets
One time for all the minds hypnotized by TV
Because everything is just a spiral to me
[Break:]
Goodbye, say goodbye
Say goodbye
[Chorus]
[Verse 2: B.o.B]
So get your hands up high
No, don't be shy, raise em up to the sky
Because we will survive
Yeah, storm after storm, there's still sunshine
So can you feel the vibe?
Yeah, just like yeast, I'm a major rise
So just say goodbye
And just kiss it goodnight when the day arrives
[Break]
[Chorus]
[Break x2]
[Chorus]
[Break]
[feat. One Republic]
[B.o.B:]
I woke up with my feet up
Sit up, outfit 30 thousand feed'a
But you know, you know how I leaker
My homie ya, tell me how's the future
I remember back, when I was living in a freezer
Keep my hustle up, so I can keep the heat up
Now, I've got my cheese up
School is... they see us
How you like me now? I'll meet you when I'm real!
[One Republic:]
Woke up in London yesterday
Found myself in the city near Piccadilly
Don't really know how I got here
I got some pictures on my phone
New names and numbers that I don't know
Address to places like Abbey Road
Day turns to night, night turns to whatever we want
We're young enough to say.
[Chorus:]
Oh, this has gotta be the good life
This has gotta be the good life
This could really be a good life, good life!
Say oh, got this feeling that you can't fight
Like this city is on fire tonight
This could really be a good life
A good, good life!
Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh
[One Republic:]
To my friends in New York, I say hello
My friends in L.A., they don't know
Where I've been for the past few years or so
Paris to China to Col-or-ado
Sometimes there's airplanes I can't jump out
Sometimes it's bullshit that don't work now
We are god of stories but please tell me-e-e-e
What there's to complain about
When you're happy like a fool
Let it take you over
When everything is out
You gotta take it in
[Chorus:]
Oh, this has gotta be the good life
This has gotta be the good life
This could really be a good life, good life!
Say oh, got this feeling that you can't fight
Like this city is on fire tonight
This could really be a good life!
A good, good life
[B.o.B:]
Yeah!
This, right here is teh definition of timeless
This is incredible-le-es timeless
I could tell you what is behind me
Huh, couldn't say where my mind is?!
Brand hustle things, revearing me as your highness
My family treat you...
They say the best you ain't yet come
... soak up your eyes.
[Chorus:]
Oh, this has gotta be the good life
This has gotta be the good life
This could really be a good life, good life!
Say oh, got this feeling that you can't fight
Like this city is on fire tonight
This could really be a good life
A good, good life!
Oh, Oh, yeah, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, good, good, life.
Good, good, life, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh.
[One Republic:]
Listen, to my friends in New York, I say hello
My friends in L.A. they don't know
Where I've been for the past few years or so
Paris to China to Col-or-ado
Sometimes there's airplanes I can' t jump out
Sometimes it's bullshit that don't work now
We are god of stories but please tell me
Baby since my wild days
Nothing ever changed
So many girls so many ways
It's the same old game
It's a ritual slaying
Beyond that point
Hey baby stop prayin'
There's no return
Hear the angels cry
Watch the demons fly
Good Kill
Good Kill
Burn little star
Your time is here-
You get your irritaion
On this hot vacation
Only the nightime
Is the right time, baby
Since I aimed at you
There's no more chance for you
Hear the angels cry
Watch the demons fly
Good Kill
[B.o.B - Verse 1]
Okay so I’m on the beat
what am I supposed to rhyme
what am I supposed to do in this booth
am I to flow a line
what am I a postman now
what am I a poster child
what am I supposed to smile?
what am I supposed to be the dopest MC to hold this down
what if I wasn’t poor as a child
what if I didnt grow up in doubt
I probably shouldn’t be smoking so much my mind is over fried
but still I notice how
them same folks will smile in your face
but behind your back them same folk will frown
but thats enough about them, talk about me
yeh it’s B to the O, I said B to the O and to the B
I owe it to the streets
and I aint tryna brag but you know your boys a beast
and yeah I gotta eat cause my groceries on this beat
and my song will carry on till I no longer speak
my soul is all so Kosher added to the fact I’m cheap
and I put that on my grandma (?) so Rest In Peace hater!
[J.Cole - Verse]
ay many blessins sent from heaven thanking God to be alive
flight attendant woke me up said Mr.Cole you have arrived, welcome
in this game the price of fame is steep Lord help em’
keep em’ sane
prayin’ that the heat won’t melt em
I’m headed to the top I could’nt be more welcome
took the lead role now look I’m right outside ya peephole
thats for the crownholders
never would I dethrone
but if you ever leave home dont worry I keep ya seat warm
so yea I’m simba in a sense I’m the Prince you imposters no mufasas
but theres oscars for you gents
when I say im betta then you n-ggas dont mean no offense
but is clear wit’ no tints man just check the fingerprints
you see we not the same
I got a sh-t list wit’ lot’s a names
and plus hit list wit’ of rappers I’ma cock and aim
then it’s who shot ya man
finally figured out tha game got nothin’ to lose
Tell me where am I supposed to go?
And who am I supposed to believe.
If only you knew what I knew.
Then you could see just what I see.
[Chorus:]
So I grab my bags and go, as far away as I can go.
Cause everything ain't what I used to know.
And I try to hide, but I just can't hide no more.
There's nothing worse than feeling like a ghost.
You say I look fine, if only you knew what's on my mind.
You'd see a whole different sign, I couldn't show you even if I tried.
I must have got lost in time when I found out I was only free to be, where ever I want to be.
Some say I'm out of sight, how I run and that we're all so blind.
If you could open up your eyes, you could see what I couldn't describe.
And then, you'd see the signs, and then your soul would be set free, and then you'd be released.
[Chorus:]
So I grab my bags and go, as far away as I can go.
Cause everything ain't what I used to know.
And I try to hide, but I just can't hide no more.
There's nothing worse than feeling like a ghost.
Tell me where am I supposed to go.
And who am I supposed to believe.
If only you knew what I knew.
Then you could see. (Hey)
[Chorus:]
So I grab my bags and go, as far away as I can go.
Cause everything ain't what I used to know.
And I try to hide, but I just can't hide no more.
There's nothing worse than feeling like a ghost.
And I'm terrified, like I've seen a UFO.
Cause everything ain't what I used to know.
And I try to hide, but I just can't hide no more.
There's nothing worse than feeling like a ghost.
(I go)
(A UFO)
(And I'm so tired of hiding, I've been running, I've been trying, to get away, to get away)
So I grab my bags and go, as far away as I can go.
Cause everything ain't what I used to know.
And I try to hide, but I just can't hide no more.
[Intro:]
(Turbulence. Can you feel? Turbulence) Okay. (Can you feel?)
I need to spit something real for a second y'all. (Turbulence)
Just bare with me. Listen. (Can you feel? Turbulence.)
[Verse:]
Skull and crossbones and death bandannas
A liquor store on every corner in Atlanta
Cops ridin' around tossin' niggas in the slammer
Tell me what's wrong
I could really use some answers
Now-a-days everybody wants to be a rapper
About two years ago everybody was a trapper
Obviously, money is what everybody's after
Cause slavery ain't change
It's a modern day disaster
Now these are my words from me to you
Everything you do from your shades to your shoes
From your chains to your Coupe
Came from the tube
Trust me I would know
I was raised on it too
Okay, now just let me get your attention
I'm a turn the tables so you don't get defensive
I'm a put my bullshit aside for a second
Cause I can't be fake
Cause God won't let me
I used to wear a grill
Because it was the trend
Not because I liked it
I just wanted to fit in
Then I got "Eastside" tatted on my skin
And I tried to get dreads but my hair was too big
But I was lost
I ain't know who I was
What else was there to do besides look like a thug
So in my senior year at Columbia High
I dropped out of high school and I got signed
B.o.B. was the name
I ain't like Bobby Ray cause I was ashamed
But you can call me Bobby Ray from this day forth
And I could give a damn about the fame and fortune
Honestly I don't even listen to rap
Cause when I turn the radio on, out comes crap
And if you make good music that's okay
But on the radio, that they don't play
It's easy to see we created a beast
Cause everybody wants to hear what they don't need
And now all the rappers got to struggle to give you
That bullshit music so they can continue
To live
The position that I'm in
Is quite an interesting predicament I admit
But you can count on me cause I'm refusing to give in
Cause I'm a give you music cause we need it to exist
Bitch
So I'm a play my guitar
Rap about aliens and sing about stars
Till you understand that's what we are
So we ain't got to struggle no more so we don't starve
I swear to God I love you with every bar
We all got problems that need to be solved
So while I got the mic I'm a speak my thoughts
[Verse 1 -B.o.B]
Hahaha
Hahaha
You feel it?
Well if you're trying to stop me it don't matter
I got the power of a 40 caliber
Got the flow, got the style, got the stamina
Better call you a police and ambulance
Cuz Im rippin' em down tasin' em down
Slower than four legged animals
All I need is a blunt of that canibus
And I leap in the air like a catapult
Look way up there it's a bird it's a plane
No it's the savior to change the game
Doin my damn thing
Shootin' em up like bam bang pow
Getting a little bit now
Lettin' em know to bow down
Yup it's b o bizzle and I'm letting em know what I'm about.
[Hook - B.o.B]
They got the cameras on let em know it's game time
Strap em up strap em up cuz it's game time
Toe to toe
Blow for blow
Now it's game time
Yea it's game time
Yea it's game time
It's game time
It's game time
It's game time
Lettin' em know it's game time
It's game time
It's game time
It's game time
They say that I'm changing

I don't need nobody but my god damn self
They say that I'm changing
Cause I'm gettin famous
Fuck I don't need nobody but my god damn self
I don't need nobody but my god damn self
Since I been in dis game
It's been like a ceilin fan
What comes around goes around
Will circlen back again
Your friends start enemies
Then enemies fall in your face
And then try ta emphentray
This all cause I entertain
But still it's quite entertainin
To see all these niggas faces
They call me B.O.B now
But back then I could'ntmake it
They say that I came up and I failed outa class
But it worked out both ways
Cause they ain't gotta see my black ass
So I grew up in dakota set
Where the coc n dro is at
Stayin strapped n loaded man
That's all they spose to know about
That's why I stay paranoid
Cause these niggas hatin now
So I keep my middle finger up until I made it out
They say that I'm changing
Cause I'm gettin famous
Fuck I don't need nobody but my god damn self
I don't need nobody but my god damn self
They say that I'm changing
Cause I'm gettin famous
Fuck I don't need nobody but my god damn self
I don't need nobody but my god damn self
Now yestaday, me n my dawg got loaded
Cracked a joke on my dawg, my dawg exploded
Nigga you changing, boy you meant that
Where da love had went at
Can't stand to see a nigga shinin
Now you under-eye-in
The click
Hate to see a nigga smile n laugh
Fuck you
Hate to see me signing autographs
Fuck you
All I need, is my voice since I'm fire weed
I don't owe a nigga shit
And I'll ask for you to ride my dick
How am I gon' change, all I know is da streets
There's alota guttas on my street and alot of gutta in me
Don't speak at me, don't wave
Ain't no hip hop parade
By the way, suck a dick, you got some garbage ass waves
They say that I'm changing
Cause I'm gettin famous
Fuck I don't need nobody but my god damn self
I don't need nobody but my god damn self
They say that I'm changing
Cause I'm gettin famous
Fuck I don't need nobody but my god damn self
I don't need nobody but my god damn self
Let me speak up so eryone can here me
You ain't neva had nuttin, so you all should fear me
Young, wild, n ruthless
Consider me grown
Ery man for himself in tha each zone
And ery since I made a statement
Ya bouncas could'nttake it
Dats a shame, look at how they obligatin
Hatin steadily plottin n wishin for Lil DG's position
They juss blinded by the lights
Ain't payin attention
Know how ta struggle with tha hard, tha green, n tha soft
Know how ta lear ta pay the cost to be the boss
You got people that follow people, screamin they need help
But I don't need nobody but my god damn self
They say that I'm changing
Cause I'm gettin famous
Fuck you

I'm gonna
[Chorus]
Make a lot of money
And I'm-and I'm gonna quit this, quit this

And I'm-and I'm gonna quit this, quit this
(Quit this)
Crazy scene
[Asher]
It ain't supposed to be so hard

Make a lot of money
(Then I'm gonna)
And I'm-and I'm gonna quit this, quit this

Man you don't know me, you only know what my name is

[Chorus]
Make a lot of money
And I'm-and I'm gonna quit this
Crazy scene

[Chorus - B.o.B]
Make a lot of money
(Make a lot of money)
And I'm-and I'm gonna quit this, quit this
(Quit this)

Make a lot of money
(C'mon man)
And I'm-and I'm gonna quit this, quit this

Crazy scene
[B.o.B]
Come y'all, y'all actin' like I can't feel you

So at this point in my life
How can I get through?
[Chorus - B.o.B]
Make a lot of money

Like 'Ye said
I'm turnin' atheists into believers
[Chorus - B.o.B]
Make a lot of money
(Make a lot of money)
And I'm-and I'm gonna quit this, quit this
(Quit this)
Crazy scene
[B.o.B]
Look
A lot of haters attack but
It's my job to speak the truth on the track
So say what you like, you just givin' me gas
So by now, I got enough to drive to Venus and back
So I'ma
[Chorus - B.o.B]
Make a lot of money
(Make a lot of money)
And I'm-and I'm gonna quit this, quit this
(Quit this)
Crazy scene
[B.o.B]
Fuck the money I'm leavin'
I'm goin' back home after I break even
I said what I said so as long as I'm speakin'
B.o.B got the upper hand as long as I'm breathin'
[Chorus - B.o.B]
Well, I'm a make a lot of money
(Fuck the money)
And I'm-and I'm gonna quit this, quit this

[Outro]
I'm gone. Peace
Well I guess I got problems
Dropped outta school ain't think about college
So apologies to my mother and father
For being stubborn ever since I was a toddler
[Chorus]
Well I'm a quit this crazy dream
Cause when I hit the stage all the ladies scream
And when I pass by they all waving at me
But I be getting tired, y'all pray for me
[Chorus]
[Asher Roth]
I feel you B.o.B I feel you man
everyone knew her name but the fame didn't take her far,
and she was in awe,
trying to imitate the lifestyle that she saw,
and there was no cars,
living illusions,
dream illusive chasing cars,
a tongue so harsh,
she could persuade a million soldiers into the dark
so juat wait up a minute lady,
pop them breaks for a minute you're so mistaken,
i say you look awfully shady,
or maybe you're just contemplating a friday night star,
(shes a superstar)
a friday night star,
a friday night star
(shes a superstar),
a friday night star,
jessica, im thinking i could probably take her home and marry her,
but eveything i keep on hearing makes me scared of her,
and now i know i probably should have never messed with her,
but she got me grabbing my coat and keys and i did i did,
i get on the express way and speed to her crib, her crib,
i just loose control everytime i see all those hips and lips,
and it feels just like an evil deed,
but i slip, i slip,
so juat wait up a minute lady,
pop them breaks for a minute you're so mistaken,
i say you look awfully shady,
or maybe you're just contemplating a friday night star,
(shes a superstar)
a friday night star,
a friday night star
(shes a superstar),
a friday night star,
yeah,yeah,
shes dressed for the friday night lights,
with her boots zipped up, her jeans tight,
wonderin, tryna find the right type,
but theres dogs round here and they might bite,
i sit back, then stare in amazement,
as these girls go awfully crazy,
they don't know me,
but they know that they play my song on the radio station,
and i climb on top of the stage,
wait for the beat when it drop, then i sing,
everybody get poured up, then drink,
then by the end of the night they faint,
after the pause, i fade to the dark,
everybody please give a round of applause,
i leave to the car, she waits for me patiently by the bar
so juat wait up a minute lady,
pop them breaks for a minute you're so mistaken,
i say you look awfully shady,
or maybe you're just contemplating a friday night star,
(shes a superstar)
a friday night star,
a friday night star
(shes a superstar),

Mankind sleeps in torment
I just got my wooden box
While others basked in glory
I just tried to curse the day
Lived on worm and dust
Sons of hell unite
For the night
Sunshine burns the warriors
But I don't feel my burns
I just search the vindication
For the love before
Buried in a lonely grave
Sons of hell unite
For the night
Mankind sleeps in torment
I just got my wooden box
Valerian forever
Never see the light of day
Ashes come and ashes go
But I remain forever, waiting
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
She callin me back to her mattress
Back was like backflips we practice gymnastics
We got attached to the fact we attracted
You know I'm an addict and
My soul is a magnet
So if you get close then you can't go backwards
I know I'm kinda like a black hole in a galaxy
You are trapped beneath my galactic habits
I couldn't even notice the patterns, damn
[Chorus:]
But I was just so blind
You haven't called up at the perfect time
But I couldn't see it. I said I couldn't see it
Eventually I had to wisen up and open up my eyes
But I couldn't believe it, the way you looked was so deceivin
Cause I was a fool for love
Who sadly fell in love
With a girl who couldn't love
With a girl who couldn't love
And now I'm sad in love
Cause I'm not the only one
And I'm beatin myself for love
For the girl who couldn't love
Cause I was a fool for love
Yeah I was a fool for love
Yeah I was a fool for love
Yeah I was a fool for love
Cause I was a fool for love
Hola bobby (hey)
Lemme tell ya bout my ex
But yet so fly mommy
I probly had the chance to exit stage
Left with her sister but whenever she left I would miss her
Lady dropped me like a cut in a track
Cuddlin cats who love they cat
A puzzlin accent, was she from scandenavia
Or fantasia from asia.
Click the mouse. I took a second ta figure it out
Thinkin it out, kissin, adrenaline in her mouth
Is it about you? her? or is it somethin super?
Silly me still in love with a cougar!
[Chorus:]
But I was just so blind
You haven't called up at the perfect time
But I couldn't see it. I said I couldn't see it
Eventually I had to wisen up and open up my eyes
But I couldn't believe it, the way you looked was so deceivin
Cause I was a fool for love
Who sadly fell in love
With a girl who couldn't love
With a girl who couldn't love
And now I'm sad in love
Cause I'm not the only one
And I'm beatin myself for love
For the girl who couldn't love
Cause I was a fool for love
Yeah I was a fool for love
Yeah I was a fool for love
Yeah I was a fool for love
Cause I was a fool for love

Again, don't nobody do it like the kid do
Talkin bout the greatest better throw him on the list too (who)
Way at the top even stopped dreamin even in the offseason I'm steamin (hot)
Hurry up somebody better check our temperature
On the fire titan like the movie they remember us
Plus how can a nigga hate for real when resilience the only thing matchin' my brilliance
Hahaha lol niggas kill me
Look mama no guns and I'm still G
Whoda thought from baker rows center hill he get so much accomplished niggas plot to try to kill me
And keep it real we try yet and still we die out in the battle field but don't nobody feel me

Yea, sign yours sincerely
I been up on my game, really they just started listening
So when you talk about the greats you got to mention me
And if you're smellin' dro you know that I'm in the vicinity
Flawless with symmetry
Yea, since elementary niggas bite the style like they tryna swap identities
Empty refrigerators all I see up in my memory
Now I'm in the club with complimentary Hennessy
But this a jungle so you hear the snakes slitherin'
These niggas fake like a face with no blemishes
So I'm movin' with the force of an olympian
So cold with it you would think that I invented it
Yea, I got a million ways to get it in
All day back and forth like tennis is
Another day at the office to handle business
From the beginning I sprinted knew where the finish is
[Chorus: T.I.]
While these niggas run they mouth
I'm a run this city so feet don't fail me now
I never will stand still
I still run this here
Feet don't fail me now
I said feet don't fail me now
I said feet don't fail me now
[Verse 3: Spodee]
I heard the tip I won't and shame on they ass
Since the presence is a gift I won't refrain from the past
I'm a young stunner focused and ready to smash
Niggas on that sucka shit boy they really appeared sad
If my feet don't fail me I shall be crowned
But they never failed me before why would they fail now
I'm the one to call on look how they kept it down
Hopin they got the right number I hear the skeptical sounds
I made they ass I'm made to last
Niggas thinking that they on fire I blaze they ass (I mean it)
I'm hopin you see it comparing me to rappers is silly
Them boys stale packin up illys
And all my niggas packin the illy my fraction is gritty we large
The best kush the only reason I'm beggin' your pardon
Cats don't know how to act in the presence of don's
I'm just bein a playa while they bitches enjoyin' my charm
[Chorus: T.I.]
While these niggas run they mouth
I'm a run this city so feet don't fail me now
I never will stand still
I still run this here
Feet don't fail me now
I said feet don't fail me now

verse 1
Well this is the mysterious case
of Dr.Aden
looking after her patients was her only obligation but
that was back before back before the situation
before she got a visit from an agent
He introduced himself as an employee of the nation
he asked would she'd be willing to offer cooperation
you fit the job description and all the qualifications
if interested i need your signature on this paper
she signed the dotted line without the slightest hesitation
she then received a letter stating the rules and regulations and the military bases where she must be relocated
she is not to discuss any business thats work related
chorus
verse 2
its central America
on a classified location
before border control
before a illegal immigration
inside a lab where
chemicals are manipulated
is where we see Dr.Aden
shes very concentrated
but her concentrations broken
when she hears a conversation
down the halls
small talk about destabilization and
outta curiosity she wanders from her station
inside a unlocked office she did some investigation
she breaks into a file with
top secret information
probably some of the most disturbing documentation
she ever saw in her life
the article simply stated
a study being conducted on human civilization
verse 3
deep down inside she wished it was all her imagination
she couldn't doubt it
cause there it clearly stated
she works in a facility where viruses are created
and not only that
but member when she had her patients
she wrote out prescriptions for what she thought was medication
her office was really just a part of the operation
she wipes her eyes as they water full of frustration
how a victim of government experimentation
wheres the justification
wheres the justification
wheres the judge when you need him
hes probably on a vacation
probably inside of the same countries that these events takes place in
but as the puzzle pieces fall into proper arrangement
yes we began to see the intentions of these creations
the patterns of epidemics like
H.I.V. in the 80's
biological chemicals designed to be contagious
[Intro:]
This shit right here is strictly for my niggas ridin' down Glenwood.
(DJ Scream. Hood rich beeotch.)
My niggas on Mooreland Ave. Boulder Cris.
You got six 12's in the trunk nigga this shit for you.
Let's go. (Hood rich hoe)
[Chorus:]
Well baby girl was lookin' at my ride
So I guess I'm a have to put her up inside
She was with you first now she's sittin' by my side
This is what happens every time I drive by
When I'm in that double bubble
They give me double bubble
When I'm in that double bubble
They give me double bubble
Yeah
[Verse:]
They see my whip and be like, "That's a mean motherfucker"
Smothered in cream, make her melt like butter
But I don't speak, I throw up the Eastside that mean "What up? "
Come in LZ, so put your system on 'Shut Up'
I hit the scene, real clean like scrub dum dum
They can't compete, they speakers bust the fuck
My kick got beat, they kicks be scuffed up
They beat, just fluff fluff
They weak and scrubbed up
They be like, "Who that is? Can you turn that down? "
Cause they say I got too many 15's in my ride
And the Alpine is vibratin' they booty, chest and thighs
So girls be gettin' juicy wet when they get inside
[Chorus:]
Well, baby girl was lookin' at my ride
So I guess I'm a have to put her up inside
She was with you first now she's sittin' by my side
This is what happens every time I drive by
When I'm in that double bubble
They give me double bubble
When I'm in that double bubble
They give me double bubble

[Intro: sample from Kanye West's "Pinocchio Story"]
"Do you really have the stamina?
For everybody that sees you that say, 'Where's my camera? '
For everybody that sees you, to say sign a autograph
For everybody that sees you cry, and say you oughta laugh
You oughta laugh! "
[Chorus: Kanye West sample (B.o.B)]
"Do you really have the stamina? "
(Do you have the stamina)
"For everybody that sees you that say, 'Where's my camera? '"
(Where's my camera)
"For everybody that sees you, to say sign a autograph"
(Sign an autograph)
"For everybody that sees you cry, and say you oughta laugh"
(You oughta laugh) "You oughta laugh! "
[Verse 1: B.o.B.]
Well, posing for pictures and living on a poster
The hardest thing for me is to keep my compsure
I ain't always happy, and I ain't always sad
But when the spotlight is on, you have to handle the task
And even the people who swear they love so bad
A go and put your dirty laundry on the cover of mags
Then everyone sees it and gets a good laugh
And now your whole persona is just a thing of the past
Now, when people see they ignore all the pain
They only think about the rumors and mistakes you made
So that's why I don't read all the comments on the blogs
Everybody's a fan if you boo or applaud
Now give me your energy, even if you're my enemy
Or trying to be friends with me, aggressively or timidly
Put my next to anyone in this industry
You still will never find someone that's in my league
[Chorus]
[Verse 2: B.o.B.]
Celebrity this, celeberity that
Reality TV fiends addicted like crack and smack
My business is rap, and my business is politicing with that
And then my business is put on the map
Yeah, the bigger I get, the better the hat
The bttter the slacks, the better the shirts, the more I adapt
The more you pay attention to my sentences
The more you'll realize why I'm a lyrcist
And why I sacrifice my time for this experience
And why my album still isn't in your speakers yet
You think you know me now, and you ain't even seen me yet
Well, except maybe on your TV set
Bring the bridge
[Instrumental Break]
[Scratched:] "Bring the bridge"
When I think it's safe to say
She is grown and on her own
So she will be on her way.
I think it's safe to say
She is grown and on her own
So she will be on her way.
Look at her isn't she so attractive
She has the same eyes as her (Daddy)
Her boyfriend is a rapper

Now I think it's safe to say
She is grown and on her own
So she will be on her way.
I think it's safe to say
She is grown and on her own
So she will be on her way.
She said take me to the Pool
And take me to the movies
But I really think it's all
Because her (Daddy) Daddy didn't do it
I be actin roofless to her
But she just excuse it
And every now and then
She will tell me to improve it.
I'm like improvin? What am I supposed to be doin?
She say that I'm actin' clueless like her (Daddy) (uhh huhh)
But Cupid ain't stupid girl

Well I've done seen alot of women pass and go
Done wen't back in forth like a game of basketball (I'm Open!)
What they afta I don't know hell naw
But I know I've been down that road before
From summer to fall
Winter to march
Sun up to dawn
Finish from song
Runnin round lookin up hookin up
Hit the club liquered up
But she really lookin for her (Daddy)
Well I think it's safe to say
She is grown and on her own
So she will be on her way
I think it's safe to say
She is grown and on her own
Ok ok
Well I’m trapped on a rollercoaster
And they won't let me go, so it's totally bogus And every single lady gets cold and colder Till my mood gets low like below the sofa.
Can somebody tell me where to go?
Somewhere far away where it can't go wrong There's way to many snakes on this globe Now everybody sing it Everybody sing it
Created a monster
Created a monster
But nobody wants 'em
But nobody wants 'em
We've created a monster
Created a monster

So long
But since there's nowhere to go
I guess I'll be on the road
Wherever my soul will go
Goodbye, so long
Outer space

Took it why
I can’t give you direction
Time
In the future I can get with the Jetsons I Need to leave you Someone give me suggestions Fuck elections The whole planet’s infected Call a doctor I could use some correction Call the revered I could make a confession It’s just like a Subatomic nuclear weapon Everybody’s singing Everybody’s singing

Wherever my soul will go
Goodbye, so long

[Verse 1]
Well me and her were the 2
me and her were together like glue
but we lived packed in a shack
like the old lady who lived in a shoe
and we ain't really know what to do
'till one day she got her a job at WaMu
I said baby if you been thinkin' what I thinkin',
then all of our problems are through
so we got together with the crew
and planned everything with the T
we got gloves and guns and bags and masks
and anything we would need
so we scoped out the facility
really waited a couple of weeks.
'till it was time to kick in the door
everyone down its a robbery
[Chorus X2]
You're as cold as ice (you're as cold as ice)
you're willing to sacrifice our love
and now you got me (Froze)
I said you got me (froze)
because you're so c-cold
you left me cold tonight
[Verse 2]
So I went to my girl and said "quit playin' and give me the cash"
but nobody suspected a thing
it was quite a spectacular act
so we get to the safe out of everyone's sight
so I take off my mask and ask
"did your partner remember to cut the line for the panic button in the back?"
and she paused
the look she had on her face was cold as ice
before she could she could say the next word I heard the sirens pull out outside
so I tried to grab her and run, she pulled away and said she would be fine
she was on the clock so I guess nobody would think she was in on the crime
[Chorus X2]
You're as cold as ice (you're as cold as ice)
you're willing to sacrifice our love
and now you got me (Froze)
I said you got me (froze)
because you're so c-cold
you left me cold tonight
[Verse 3]
So I realized it was over
when the SWAT team kicked in the door
so I dropped my gun and the cash, and then I got bummed rushed to the floor
and they took me into the station
and they started the interrogation
and I said, "I ain't sayin' a word 'till I get appropriate representation"
so as I get escorted out, to my surprise what do I see
that's my baby sittin' in cuffs
tellin' the officers everything
ans I stand there in amazement
trying to find an explanation
and the cops come in and restrain me
and they mase me and the taze me
I said, "baby why baby what did I do to forsake you
how can you turn your back on me you're selfish I hate you
all I ever wanted to do love you
were you fakin'?"
so I snatched the gun from my officer
and I cocked it and I aimed it
and said, "this is for all the pain you done
put me through you're ungrateful how could you
all I wanted to do was save you"
and here I am day 55
with 55 hundred to go
when you love a girl who is as cold as ice
eventually you'll get froze
[Chorus X2]
You're as cold as ice (you're as cold as ice)
you're willing to sacrifice our love
and now you got me (Froze)
I said you got me (froze)
because you're so c-cold
you left me cold tonight
[Bridge]
32 degrees below zero
you're like 31 flavors you're oh so cold
feels like 30 straight days of falling snow
I'm so cold and alone, alone
you're like 32 degrees below zero
or like 31 flavors you're oh so cold
feels like 30 straight days of falling snow
I'm so cold and alone, alone
you left me cold tonight
[Chorus X2]
You're as cold as ice (you're as cold as ice)
you're willing to sacrifice our love
and now you got me (Froze)
I said you got me (froze)
because you're so c-cold
Alright [x5]
[pause]
Alright [x5]
I'm walking along a very cold road and
Wherever it ends and where it begans
I do not know
But I've notices that
He keeps rollin that
It will take you anywhere
No matter where your goin yeah
So I just wanna let you know that
I'm a bout to let it blow
Ain't on that mid-grade no
It's that professional
And there ain't goin to be no pain
I'm a bout to let it go, let it go, let it go
Goodbye – I'll be gone for awhile
I'm on cloud 9
I'll be gone for awhile
I will see you next time
I'll be gone for awhile

Now I really ain't the type
To be braggin about my wife
But mary jane is out of site and
She can do it all night and (fo sho)
Best believe shes down to blow

Just a blunt and a nigga to roll it (fo sho)

But you stare at me off your shoulder
And There she goes again (There she goes again)

A long time coming but I know

[Charles Hamilton:]
President to my cerebellum,
So I reach out to her listeners and my mission is I betta tell'em
Our fear of a free mind is hearing and spirit can die anytime you need to cry so you hide it deep inside
Reason why?
How can you change what was writtin?
Easy, don't focus your brain on what they mentioned
I got so used to tryna make thru
I feel like I'm cheatin when I'm face with a break thru
The man in the mirror keep sayin I hate you
I respond like lil nigga I made you
Slay those sayin they could break you so when I take a break I go ape come back and play fool
When they think they won that's when I question
Change is iminit I evolve so it's nuthin
What's the discusion
Charles hamilton
[Hook:]
Change gonna come, change gonna come,
Change gonna come, change gonna come,
It's been a long...
A long time coming but I know change gonna come, change gonna come,
Change gonna come, change gonna come
[Asher Roth:]
We've been calm since ever since columbus could'ntwork a compass
We've acomplished what we conjured up while conscious
And consciously we conquerd all the eye can see
Constantly concoting more options but jobs are still obsent leaf
It seems so odd to me and odyssey how honesty is honestly the rivrest thing upon us it's astonishing
How did all the honest people vonshish from the plonet?
Leaving us a laundry list of problems to acknowledge
While plotting with my phonics me and sonic and bob
Non chomp and vises as I sit down and sketch my rhymes
Stretch my mind to figure out what's next in line
The next emyay and andre?
Nah homie it's just been a long...
A long time commin...
[Hook:]
But I kno change gonna come
Change gonna come,
Change gonna come, change gonna come
It's been a long...
A long time comin but I kno
Change gonna come, change gonna come,
Change gonna come, change gonna come
[B.o.B:]
While as you listenin to this track
You probably about to blog about it maybe say it's wack
Or maybe compare the verses to see which one of us wud snap
Completly ignoring the fact that this is way more than rap
Cause I happen to be on a magazine you happen to see this issue
Some people wish you well man some people turn against you
Some people even call up to the station just to diss you
You bitch you, you only mad at your self heres a tissue
But that ain't even my focus man that hate ain't on my menue
I'm in a different city about to rock a different venue
My girl sent me a text message just to say "I miss you"
It won't be long before I'm home baby but the rents due, ha ha ha
[Hook:]
It's been a long...
A long time coming but I know change gonna come,
Change gonna come, change gonna come,
Hold me, I'm writing it down
We're in a song underneath the crown
Let my blood keep pumping
My heart keep beating
Okay this is very simple...
I come in you take your clothes off and I take pictures
Hmmk?
She gets up and takes a shower
Now she is in the mirror for hours
By the way she is a model of course
Hair all made up and makeup powered up
Walkin on a runway
But she don't know where she goin
Shes just hopin'
That she keeps rollin'
Childhood broken
10 years later now shes a hoe and
Everybody wonder why does she act so cold
Cause that attitude ain't natural
Leave that drama
On that there door
Because I'm really not into that there for
Watch her take off her bra
Closing like a stall
Smiling for the camera (camera)
Ahhh shes a movie star
With that runway walk
Jus smilin for that camera (camera)
(Get work get work get)
She from my town far away
Then she moves to the A
To go to Georgia State
Then she got turned out
Then she dropped out
Now she is a actress to balls
To sang but ain't that pretty
She just trying to mimic the life in the city
Trying to keep up with that lime like livin
Just wishin for one audition and video position
But that ain't how she used to be and 2 or 3
But no she is a hoochie freak so
Now they wonder if you will see
A little ole cutie with a booty booty
Darling, why the long face? why the long face?
Everybody loves you girl. Everyone loves you.
You know your gunna be legendary one day.
Watch her take off her bra
Closing like a stall
Smiling for the camera (camera)
Ahhh shes a movie star
With that runway walk
Jus smilin for that camera (camera)
(Get work get work get)
She dropped out of school at 16 anti-abortion
And dad is mixin
Then she got her a job at wendys
2 years later shes in there strippin
Twurkin that Money
Just to make her some daycare money
And to pay for the rent bill monthly
Her son is sayin that ain't my mommy
But but 15 years down the line
She ain't the same as shes past her prime
Now it's all goin down the drain
Say goodbye to all the fame
On behalf of WorldWide Inc.
I'm sorry to inform you that we will no longer
Be needing your modeling services darling
That's the way the cookie crumbles
Stiff up the upper lip? hmm?
Watch her take off her bra
Closing like a stall
Smiling for the camera (camera)
Ahhh shes a movie star
With that runway walk
Jus smilin for that camera (camera)
Watch her take off her bra
Closing like a stall
Smiling for the camera (camera)
Ahhh shes a movie star
With that runway walk
I, wish I, was strong enough,
To lift, not one, but both of us,
Someday I will be strong enough,
To lift, not one, but both of us,
Uh, ever thought about losin' it,
when your money's all gone and you lose your whip,
you might lose your grip,
when the landlord tell ya that you're due for rent,
and the grass so green on the other side,
make a nigga wanna run straight through the fence,
open up the fridge 'bout twenty times,
but you still can't find no food in it, that's foolishness,
and sometimes i wonder,
why we care so much about the way we look,
and the way we talk, and the way we act,
and the clothes we bought, how much that cost,
does it even really matter,
'cause if life is an up hill battle,
we all tryna climb wit the same old ladder,
and the same boat, with the same old paddle,
why so shallow? I'm just askin'
what's the badder, to the madness,
every body in their number one traffic,
most of us ain't Hollywood actors,
but if it's all for one, and one for all,
then maybe one day, we all could ball,
do it one time for the underdogs,
sincerely yours, one of y'all,
I, wish I, was strong
To lift, not one, but both of us,
Someday I will be strong enough,
To lift, not one, but both of us,
I can feel your pain, i can feel your struggle,
you just wanna live, but everythings so low,
that you could drown in a puddle,
that's why i gotta hold us up, yeah hold us up,
for all the times no one ever spoke for us,
to every single time that they play this song,
you can say that's what bobby ray wrote for us,
when the tides get to high,
and the sea up underneath gets so deep,
and you feel like you're just another person gettin' lost in the crowd,
when your up high and your nose bleeds, uh
'cause we both been there, yeah both of us,
but we still stand tall why the hold is up,
and even though we're always against the odds,
these are the things that have molded us,
and if life hadn't chosen us,
sometimes i wonder where i would've wound up,
if it was up to me, I'd make a new blueprint,
then build it from the ground up, hey,
but if it's all for one, and one for all,
then maybe one day, we all could ball,
do it one time for the underdogs,
from bobby ray, to all of y'all,
I, wish I, was strong enough,
To lift, not one, but both of us,
Someday I will be strong enough,
you watching mine i'm over grinding, i ain't quitting for nothing
tell your mothers and uncles, brothers, sisters and cousins
my flow so nasty deranged, that nigger tipping disgusting
gotta cripple the game, quit your pulling the table
cause i am clinically insane
i go to pushing the button, they get the clicking and busting
you get the dipping, the they get the cliff by the dozen
you come up missing for nothing,
hey i can triple your budget, i'm in the bizness of hustling
if we ain't talking about money, i say let's end the discussion
hate off my shoulders all the ladies are bless you
they all love when i fuck, black and russian
tell them be easy mastered the art of seduction
i let them blow me so much head, i could catch a concussion
7 chicks in the bed, touch a lick in a second
dick i'm into submission and then i send them
you can say what you like,
do all that and puffing around away from the pipe
don't know who get in yourwhen you sit in your
the great imaginary life you only live on the mike
i'm who you'd die to be like, cause i'm so fly nice
to live my life you'd have to try to hit the lottery twice
find it amusing, i'm giggling, what you made me hear
prison, saving my day in a year, nigger
wow, it's on right nowbang listen
no retreat, no surrender, no gimmicks, no hopes, no jokes, no pretenders
the littledefenders haters all they tempers
but tell them phil how they feel, fucking let it go
that's ineffective though, i'm in a show
it's that incredible and my old special doze, extra flow, quiet dog
off the chain, i was born unleashed
and i get it how i get it cause i'm from these streets
these niggers i cut your favorite rhythm i made this
say it once, say it twice, you made this
that's in a affirmative, word of big bird it is

yeah and you know my style, i'm from the killer cane
while we turn it on and turn it out

i'm from the city where they hang out on the life pole
trying to get their weight up
i'm talking about the city i take everywhere that i go

It's time to kill the lights
And shut the DJ down

Tonight were taking over
No one's getting out
This place about to blow
Blow

Now what (What)
We're taking control
We get what we want
We do what you don't
Dirt and glitter
Cover the floor
We're pretty and sick
We're young and we're bored (Ha)
It's time to lose your mind
And let the crazy out
(This place about to)
Tonight we're taking names
'Cause we don't mess around
This place about to blow
Blow
This place about to blow
Blow
This place about to blow
Blow
This place about to blow
Blow
This place about to

Go, go, go, go insane
Go insane
Throw some glitter
Make it rain on him
Let me see them Hanes
Let me, let me see them Hanes
Go insane
Go insane
Throw some glitter
Make it rain on him
Let me see them Hanes
Let me, let me see them Hanes (C'mon)
We are taking, over (Blow)
Get used to it, over (Blow)
This place about to blow

[Chorus - B.o.B]
Put me on anything still I bet I bust
Put me anywhere on the map I bet I bust

[B.o.B]
Bust, bust, bu-bu-bust
Yeah, on bud, bet I bust
Thats just what I does, yes
Put me anywhere on the map with a backpack strapped
Still I bet I bust
Bet I flow
Bet I rip this beat
Bet I feel that soul
Bet I go
Bet I bench these n-ggas like Ray, sit down bro!
Bet I know, everything about this game
Bet I know my role
Plus they know when I come to the court this is my sport
B dot o, B
So, bet I go
Bet I’m on a brand new plane
Bet I’m in a whole different zone
I ain’t really from this place
So I'm up all night long
Really I’m in outterspace
Really I ain’t got no home
Really I’m a saint
Bet I’m blown,
Bet I’m thrown, up to the sky
Over the ocean
So I fly wherever I’m goin
When I’m by, bet I’m focused
If it’s fly, you can bet I roll it
Matter of fact, you can bet I bust
[Chorus - B.o.B]
[T.I]
Drive a brown parkin center
The king from the emma(?)
The room with the boom in the booth, I deliver
The hottest, you prolly too small to acknowledge you
Impossible to copy like what everybody try to do
We cool as some dudes on them waves out in Malibu
I’m ballin hard baseline, fall through the alley-oop
BAM!
Comin through this thang like James in the air off the bare of my hand
N-gga jus can’t. pretend you forgot my name if you wanna
I’ma come hard like a bar?
Dawn?
Make a n-gga wanna rebound, turnt up, all the way, hey (?)
2 or 3 tramp
Put em in the ? bentley
N-gga say he do it like us, he should mean 96, 97
? have more blocks than ?
For those who can’t hold water need a new kidney
Put it down under Australia, Sidney (bye)
And I’m still representing,
For the n-ggas under prison
You are tuned in, listenin
And I’m back to doing big things
A sucka lookin for me, start in yo bitch’(s) dreams
Thats why I’m 20 feet tall standing on the big screen
Get dough, get green, my flow sickening,
It’s the King n-gga!
[Chorus - B.o.B]
[Playboy Tre]
Yeah, back with a cup of that liquor, n-gga
yall don’t really know Tre,
Really know me,
Really know the streets, no!
Yall n-ggas really ain’t G,
Really ain’t hard,
Never really served no heart,
Yall be playin that roll
Talkin that pimp sh-t,
Never really pimp sh-t, nah
Yall be singin them hoes
But I don’t, and I won’t
I’ll get a bitch anytime I want
I’m that guy, spit that fire
Shake the ground everytime I stomp
Bit? in the trunk, cup in the air
You can talk sh-t but I really don’t care
Man I’m in the cadillac goin direct
Gonna clack that back? cuz a n-gga ain’t scared
I’m that red clay, East of the A?
Ya n-ggas get locked up everyday
Cops ain’t sh-t so I drop that sh-t
(?) make it through the day
Grindin for my pay
It’s that n-gga Tre
Bustin like a pistol best believe it when I say
That I bust!
I really don't know how long I've been doing this sh-t
I guess 2010's the first year you gave a sh-t
I was the underdog so please excuse me a bit
I need some space so someone please make me some room in this bitch
cause I'm in Beast mode, beast mode
give me those beats I eat those
all day I don't sleep no
I don't even know what I got sheets for
them pillow cases and bed frames oh nah take that, don't need those
so high I don't get high, don't even know what I got weed for
people I'm in beast mode, why'd you think I got these teeth for
why do I rep that east side and why do they all call me B.O
but see I need this beat for
anybody fed my ego
back in the hood at east shows
so we take hood wherever we go
please know, I am as loyal as loyalty is when it's gave
dedicated, determined, dependable
so I admit it myself
yes I committed myself to the game
don't be letting them tell you them lies
we make the industry real when it's fake
so stay meditating so your head is facing into the direction you aim bitch!
Okay then, know what my name is
excuse my language but I'm fed up with the same sh-t
they say they love me but its really cause I'm famous see
my momma told me all this back when I was nameless
so f-ck y'all, I'm shameless, I'm a beast unleashed I'm raging
I'm living inside of this Matrix, this video game I'm playing
I ride around and they praise me
I crack a smile and they waving
I guess you could call me David Ruffin I'm circled in the Temptations
or maybe I'm angry, maybe I just need a little more patience
or maybe I'm crazy, maybe I just get a little to anxious
some-times-I-rhyme-like-I'm-inside-Einsteins-mind
look at the time fly by, plenty of times I've died
looking at these jive guys claiming they lost there mind
she aint really seen sh-t n-gga til you had the whole World flipped upside down
right side up from the DEC so the Eastside's up
fired up so you know when I get to the booth I go ham
cause I gotta do what I can
something like Kadoosh, kadoosh, kadoosh, I don't know which side i chant
I'm kinda like a blur with these words, guess im unreserved with these verbs
running at a hundred kilometers
pretty soon I'mma leave Earth
Earthlings, or whatever Human beings, I'mma beast
your a feast, curly fries, onion rings
this is not a f-cking game
aint no referee's involved
this is military combat soldiers standing guard round my yard
Entourage, ham squad to be exact, smoking ham, smacking back
take your girl have her back, we don't want her round my team
she's a slut and she's a freak, but you don't know cause she's discreet
I swear I see everything thats a bit, man I'm fed up to my neck with the stress
I could use a wish Hayley where you at
I guess the only exception to these girls is that I rap
but I only attack
Cause I'm in beast mode, just beast mode
everybody know I'm a muthaf-cking impostor, monster
energy drink shoulda been my sponsor
but sometimes I wonder, what is this race I run for
I don't give a f-ck about numbers so I find it ironic
these n-ggas get mad at me, talking all sideways with they eyes glazed
they mad cause I'm straight
what the mind see's the eyes say
and they say that I went pop and the streets say
[B.o.B - Verse 1]
Soon as I enter
you know who it is-a
it's the representer from the East side of Atlanta
that's known as Decatur
I got my own lane but I can't see the road
my rear view mirror's full of haters
wouldn't wanna be ya
its me they cannot battle
yes I'm a mothership and you a boat without no paddle
yes I am what they after
I'm a natural born disaster
I'm the reason your momma tell you not hang with rappers
but your momma is a minister and Im her favorite rapper
probably cause she found out that my daddy was a pastor
I wonder what she's after
but don't get it confused
theres no surprise, it's just another day in my shoes
[Chorus]
Every other city we go
every other city we go
it's just a different day with the same sh-t
it's just a different day with the same sh-t
Every other city we go
every other city we go
things just aint what I used to know
things just aint what I used to know
[B.o.B - Verse 2]
Yeah, well these n-ggas salty
high blood pressure
if you got that sodium, n-gga I got that pepper
don't step up, please fall back
y'all can't ball, all y'all are wack
haters need hugs, you thugs need love
and groupies fall in holes that gold diggers dug
these n-ggas cynical cause I'm on there medicinal
why they so sensitive, I guess they on their menstruals
I don't need no, come consider the general
regardless of my genre yes, I'm flawless in general
when I'm in the club
girls be jigging on they tippy toes
so she take me in like her vitamins and minerals
you aint on my signal, you analogue or digital
grand hustle champion, someone turn my anthem on
when my jam come on, God damn I blow straight up
I am a bomb
leaping over barriers like this was a triathalon
[Chorus]
[Verse 3]
Now I'm the everyday topic
im under the microscope so I'm feeling microscopic
my sh-t was fading to black
n-ggas thought I was gothic but made it to the next step
like recovering alcoholics
I bounce back like a snoop deville of hydraulics
aint nothing but a g-thang
n-gga I'm the king of pain
veins filled with novacane
so I aint even feeling y'all
I aint even hearing y'all
fingernails on a blackboard
they say the pen is way mightier than the sword
so I'mma spaz out to get inside the mental ward
get me grammy awards
til your faith is restored by the lord of this rap sh-t
n-ggas got it backwards, lets line up all the factors
grew up in the hood but was raised in the burbs
where pops was'nt there so the military made me a man
and they told me, put my dreams in the can
but I still made it here, damn
Ahhh, man look
Check it out
I step into the place like so
Feelin' real calm cool collected and composed
She lookin' like "Nigga, whatcha here fo'?"
I'm like, "Don't be actin' like I don't be givin that doe."
That thing that you need
That thing that you know
If we was at sea I would not be a boat
Cause I would go deep
Yes down deeper low
Right next to the P like L M N O
There is no expression
No word or phrase I know
That would accurately describe
The way I feel the most
'Bout them curve and the thighs
You know I like the most
And if I ever were to t-try to quit I'd just keep goin'
Cause just like Clarence Carter baby (I Be Strokin')
And you like, "Oh my God", I got you soundin' holy
I got a s-s-surprise. yeah that right there is golden
So hold it
Cause this is my job like it ain't nobody's business
Tell me whose is this?
B-o-Bizzless
Yeah yeah real dirty real gritty
Haha
And you know we like move
In the bedroom like boom-ba-boom-boom
Haha
Now we change up the tune
Now we got a new one rockin' in ooohn
I think it's noon and we still ain't through
While she in the zone I be up in that poon
Ewww
And it's just so nasty
That's why the sex is so damn fantastic
Trashy, trashy
You ain't gotta ask me
Kids close your ears cause this right here is graphic
Then we sit down and we brown on that cali-cali
Like we in Atlanta in the Caddy
I am not a father but she calls me "Daddy"
Now my confidence feels awfully fantastic
And that's why she the Cooter Club Captian
Cant say her name but we were two
i grabbed her waist and we would move
and then one day we were thru
and by the way i must be true
cuz all i ever wanted was to act on my attraction
i never meant to hurt you that's just my natural reaction
life's just like a roller coaster, just like a roller (roller)
life's just like a roller coaster, just like a roller (roller)
okay okay okay okay i kno i kno
you aint seen me ina while and you tryin to figure out just where the hell did i go
well i liked you i aint just want sex
well i aint even goin flex
first time you walked by everybody scream hair squad on deck
but you still was cool ima get real with you
between b.o.b. and bobby ray
which one appeal to you
but i aint too mad cuz at the end of the night
you still ............?
but this the least i can do
so this right here's for you
cuz all i ever wanted was to act on my attraction
i never meant to hurt you that's just my natural reaction
life's just like a roller coaster, just like a roller (roller)
life's just like a roller coaster, just like a roller (roller)
c'mon dont act like that
cussin me out like ima call you back
you the one at the bar in the back
tryin to figure out where all the ballers at
and all that ass got you caught us fast
and you came back with us and we all got smashed
funny how an autograph turned into all of that
just call me the bedroom bandit
cuz after one night stands i vanish
and no i cant understand it
i dont think one man on this planet does
im just sayin that even though we lookin for panties
we still want a girl at home who can fix up a good ol' sandwhich
cuz all i ever wanted was to act on my attraction
i never meant to hurt you that's just my natural reaction
life's just like a roller coaster, just like a roller (roller)
But hey, all I can say is to get what you wished for
[Chris Brown - Chorus]
If anybody feeling fresh in the building
Take your hand, hold it high to the ceiling right now
And say damn, I'm killing them, damn, I'm killing them
I know they feeling me now
And if you too fresh in the building
Then Take your hand, hold it high to the ceiling right now
And say damn, I'm killing them, damn, I'm killing them
I had a friend that took a belt, took a belt and hung himself
Hung himself in the doorway of the apartment where he lived
His woman and his little bro came home from the grocery store
Only to find him dangling in the apartment where he lived
I had a friend who shaved his head
Put his Doctor Martins on
And drew such wondrous pictures in the apartment where he lived
He praised my creativity, though he spoke sarcastically
Oh, the conversations in the apartment where he lived
I had a friend that took a belt, took a belt and hung himself
Hung himself in the doorway of the apartment where he lived
Rock, she thought him spiteful; Ler, he thought him pitiful
Misterwibblegibberwibblegruntwobblegibberwibble who? Bob!
Spends his money takes his choice.
Spends his money like an arsehole.
Good money bad choice just seems to end up with a
Misterwibblegibberwibblegruntwobblegibberwibble? Bob!
Spends his money takes his choice.
Throws his money out the window.
Good money after bad.
Just seems to end up with a grunt.
Thanks to maia (mr_jiggly
hotmail.com) for these lyrics
He spent fifteen years getting loaded
Fifteen years 'till his liver exploded
Now what's Bob gonna do now that he can't drink?
The doctor said, "What were you thinkin' 'bout?"
Bob said, "That's the point,
I wasn't thinkin' 'bout nothing
Now I gotta do something else,"
OI OI OI
"To pass the time."
Had someone shave his head
Got a new identity
Sixty-two holed air cushioned boots
And a girl who rides a scooter
Gonna take him out, of town
They would get away
Riding around, as the trucks drive by
You could here the mother fuckers go...
A couple of lines, an extra thermos of Joe
He'll be kickin' in heads at the punk rock show, yeah
Bob's the kinda guy who knows just what
Bob's the kinda guy who knows just what to do
When the doctor tells him to
"Quit your drinkin', now's the time."
Will he ever walk the line
To all my friends, I feel just great
But will he ever walk the line
Kickin' ass and bustin' heads
Red suspenders
Once a day he shaves his head
But will he ever walk the line?
But will he ever walk the line?
But will he ever walk the line?
But will he ever walk the line?
But will he ever walk the line?
[Intro:]
Yo Face turn me up
Turn me up a little bit more, yeah
He probably would tell you you're beautiful
If he could talk to you
I mean, if there was no expiration date on the batteries
Look, I've never been a hater
It's never been in my nature and umm
But listen, let me hook you up 'cause
[Verse 1:]
B.O.B., B.O.B. don't say he miss you
And he don't have lips to kiss you
And he don't have hands to dip your waist
And tell you how good you taste, yeah
See B.O.B., B.O.B. can't serve you breakfast in bed
Oh no (he can't) bathe your body (he can't) rub your feet (he can't)
He can't compete with my love (so tonight) I'm commin over
[Chorus 1:]
You need that real type of love (oh, oh, oh, oh, yeah)
That can't be duplicated (I wanna serve you up)
Your body needs to be loved (loved down)
The way that God made it
See B.O.B. can't kiss those thighs (oh no)
B.O.B. can't share your morning rise
B.O.B. can't stay this hard
See I can go harder than him (I'll go longer than him)
Longer than your Battery Operated Boyfriend
[Verse 2:]
I know (I know, I know)
You think that you can take B.O.B. anywhere (B.O.B. anywhere, B.O.B. anywhere)
But B.O.B. can't caress your skin
Help you stretch and bend
And if you ask all your girlfriends,
I'm sure you'll agree that B.O.B. (B.O.B.)
B.O.B. don't talk dirty to you (B.O.B. won't get verbal with you)
B.O.B. don't get all flirty with you (B.O.B. don't get freaky with you)
B.O.B. don't turn it around and make the bed bounce, bounce, bounce, bounce, like I do
[Chorus 2:]
You need that real type of love (yeah, yeah)
That can't be duplicated (can't be duplicated)
Your body needs to be loved (be fruitful and multiply yeah)
The way that God made it (see I even touch myself sometimes)
See B.O.B. can't kiss those thighs (B.O.B. can't kiss up on those thighs)
B.O.B. can't share your morning rise (B.O.B. can't look you in the eyes)
B.O.B. can't stay this hard (this hard yeah)
See I can go harder than him (rock hard yeah)
Longer than your Battery Operated Boyfriend
[Bridge:]
B.O.B. don't play Donny Hathaway followed by Marvin Gaye,
Followed by Sade, followed by Al Green, followed by Raheem,
Followed by Prince, followed by DeBarge, and MJB (MJB) and Jodeci (Jodeci)
Pattie Labelle (Pattie Labelle) followed by The Isley's (Maxwell),
Earth Wind and Fire (Earth Wind and Fire) and Luther Vandross
'Cause B.O.B. can't help you take them Vicky Secrets off
[Chorus 3:]
(You need a real love)
You need a real type of love (I'll be the real thing tonight)
That can't be duplicated (I won't be duplicated)
Your body needs to be loved (I got mental stimulation for you)
The way that God made it (I wanna love you like B.O.B. can't)
See B.O.B. can't kiss those thighs (who's gonna kiss your thighs)
B.O.B. can't share your morning rise (who's gonna share your morning rise)
B.O.B. can't stay this hard (B.O.B. can't baby)
'Cause I can go harder than him (but I can baby yeah yeah)
Longer than your Battery Operated Boyfriend
[Chorus 4:]
(Just call on me baby)
You need a real type of love (you need that real type of love yeah yeah)
That can't be duplicated (it won't be duplicated)
Your body needs to be loved (you need a Love Experience)
The way that God made it ('cause I know)
See B.O.B. can't kiss those thighs (I know)
B.O.B. can't share your morning rise (I know)
B.O.B. can't stay this hard
See I can go harder than him
Longer than your Battery Operated Boyfriend
[Chorus 5:]
You need that real type of love (love)
That can't be duplicated (if you need some real love tonight raise your hands in the air yeah yeah)
Your body needs to be loved (I said ladies)
The way that God made it (the way that God made it if you want some love)
See B.O.B. can't kiss those thighs (you better know)
B.O.B. can't share your morning rise (I even touch myself sometimes)
B.O.B. can't stay this hard
See I can go harder than him

Once a day he shaves his head
I've got a lot to prove, I mean to tell you
I've played the part of cool, that's what I sell you
I listen good, I listen well
You're old and you have much to tell
So come out of your quiet spell
I've heard her scream, I know she yells
I've seen it too, I know it well
So while she's gone I'll entertain you
There's not a lot that I could write about you
Your name is Bob, you smoke a pipe
That's what it amounts to
But we're the same
We all want peace
We're victims of the same disease
You deal with her, I'll deal with these
You sit and stare off into space
You've got much more to think than say
I know you won't
But you want to
You spend your time, you spend my life
stuck in your room
I take it hard because I tried
To get you out to
To have a stroll, to have a talk
About your world, about the laws
That keep you stuck, that keep you locked
I know it's hard for you to change
Before we part our separate ways
You need to know
